MariaDB 5.2.x server RPM fails on upgrades - error: scriptlet failed, exit status 1
This problem occurs on CentOS 5.5/5.6/6.0 32bit and 64bit from first time I used MariaDB 5.2.3 all the way to 5.2.9 upgrade. It happens
1) via manual RPM upgrade from RPM downloaded at http://downloads.askmonty.org/mariadb/5.2/#file_type=rpm
or
2) via ourdelta YUM REPO update http://ourdelta.org/centos (yum update MariaDB*).
Problem, MariaDB-server-5.2.x RPM updates fails and needs manually removing previous version MariaDB-server-5.2.x RPM before the new update installs.
error
error: %pre(MariaDB-server-5.2.9-102.el5.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1 error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping MariaDB-server-5.2.9-102.el5

The current MariaDB server package is provided by a different vendor (MariaDB (http://mariadb.com/)) than OurDelta - http://ourdelta.org/. Some files may be installed to different locations, including log files and the service startup script in /etc/init.d/. A manual upgrade is required. - Ensure that you have a complete, working backup of your data and my.cnf files - Shut down the MySQL server cleanly - Remove the existing MySQL packages. Usually this command will list the packages you should remove: rpm -qa | grep -i '^mysql-' You may choose to use 'rpm --nodeps -ev <package-name>' to remove the package which contains the mysqlclient shared library. The library will be reinstalled by the MariaDB-shared package. - Install the new MariaDB packages supplied by OurDelta - http://ourdelta.org/ - Ensure that the MariaDB server is started - Run the 'mysql_upgrade' program This is a brief description of the upgrade process.

Installing : MariaDB-server-5.2.9-102.el5.x86_64 1/1 PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MariaDB root USER ! To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h centos6.localdomain password 'new-password' Alternatively you can run: /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation which will also give you the option of removing the test databases and anonymous user created by default. This is strongly recommended for production servers. See the MariaDB knowledge or the MySQL manual for more instructions. Please report any problems with the /usr/bin/mysqlbug script!

Answer Answered by C Manns in this comment.
I believe this is due to files not being removed properly, possibly between the RPM's.
I'll try to replicate this and figure out why.
Currently am working on MariaDB's RPM's, and trying to get them RH/Etc approved which requires everything working in upgrades and what not. Just got EL6 rpm's started, so this is next but the RPM system is fun :D
Also believe I noticed this on my own systems and I'd always run rpm -e MariaDB-Server, so this has priority.
