That appears to be the net effect, yes.

A test run suggests that hitting mariadb-10.1 with a large hammer has
no negative effect beyond the -test binary package disappearing, so
given the number of migrations that are currently blocked behind it
(hurrah for symbols changes) I've added a force-hint for tonight's
britney run, which should unblock things.
(I'm still not entirely clear why britney isn't just doing the right
thing here anyway.)
