The update turned out to be a little more involved than I expected.  MacPorts has \
versions of MariaDB from 10.2 through 10.11.  I'm not following db stuff anymore and \
I haven't got a clue what is considered ‘mainstream' now.  I've set the \
py-mysqlclient port to default to MariaDB 10.9 in hopes that that version is \
relatively recent and yet stable enough to use.

Please either reply or file a ticket if you run into any problems.
