Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'sid' to 'experimental'.
It installed fine in 'sid', then the upgrade to 'experimental' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

As there was a separate package, but it was abandoned and removed from
Debian (https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/mytop) this script has since
only been shipped in MariaDB Client and there are no conflicts to
resolve.
Closing issue as there are no actionable items for the MariaDB
packaging for it now.
