    Description

      An RPM upgrade from 5.5 to 10.0 fails with some instructions about needing to manually remove the existing packages and then install the new ones. But the instruction to find the existing packages will only match MySQL packages, not MariaDB:

      - Remove the existing MySQL packages.  Usually this command will
        list the packages you should remove:
        rpm -qa | grep -i '^mysql-'

      This should probably be something like this instead:

        rpm -qa | grep -Ei '^(mysql|MariaDB)-'
