Failed fog upgrade from 1.5.4 to 1.5.9

[leonjv]

Hi I am trying to do an upgrade from fog 1.5.4 running mysql community server (NOT mariadb) on REDHAT 8. The upgrade script keeps failing on mariadb is not installed

The fog_error_1.5.9.log says ----

package mariadb is not installed

Even if I remove .fogsettings in /opt/fog/ it still fails because mariadb cannot be installed
