Description
MariaDB server RPM packages do not support major upgrade. However, the upgrade as such is possible, through removing the old server (possibly temporarily breaking dependencies), installing the new server, and running mysql_upgrade manually.
That's the only way we can now offer to users, and it should be tested in buildbot.
Additionally, it should help to catch problems like MDEV-14990 , which cannot be revealed by any existing package upgrade tests.
