According to https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/percona-xtrabackup/, if we want to use XtraBackup for MariaDB data, we should use Percona XtraBackup 2.4 for MariaDB Server versions beginning with 10.2.
XtraBackup 2.3 and 2.4 are both available from the MariaDB Package Repository, but XtraBackup 2.3 packages are called percona-xtrabackup while XtraBackup 2.4 packages are called percona-xtrabackup-24.
This is why, in order to correctly start a MariaDB cluster, we will need to install percona-xtrabackup-24.

This kind of makes me wonder if we should take the opportunity to remove xtrabackup and document how to add it back instead (especially since that could help with #111), but maybe I'm being overzealous (since with it in, we're able to set up a Galera cluster with just command changes at runtime).
