There is an opinion http://superuser.com/a/778269/387511 that some files such as databases are not removed during MariaDB uninstall. Is it true, and what should I take care of when uninstalling MariaDB?
Thank you. I've used site search but couldn't find an answer in the official documentation. I suggest adding this to the part about installation of MariaDB
uninstall *never ever* removes runtime data for no application, not only mysql / mariadb
the package manager *must not* touch /var/lib/ at uninstall or update
