I've been using MariaDB on my server. It seemed to be hacked. I couldn't 
restart mariadb, and I deleted it with package manager yum. However, after 
reinstalling that I still experienced some problems (they didn't disappear).

There is an opinion

that some files such as databases are not removed during MariaDB uninstall. Is 
it true, and what should I take care of when uninstalling MariaDB?

Thank you. I've used site search but couldn't find an answer in the official 
documentation. I suggest adding this to the part about installation of MariaDB

uninstall *never ever* removes runtime data
for no application, not only mysql / mariadb

the package manager *must not* touch /var/lib/ at uninstall or update
