9 Works for me. However, I would write dev-db/mariadb:10.6. Is that
10 acceptable for you?

18 If you do a normal world upgrade, this is the default portage behavior,
19 not? I.e. package manager will downgrade if you don't stop. And
20 especially on servers, people tend to use cronjobs/scripts to do that...

22 And forcefully here refers to the undesirable result (at least that was
23 my intention). Something the user doesn't want.
