mysql{client,server} upgrade from 5.6 to 5.7

[tech-lists]

Hi,

context: freebsd-12-stable, pkg with poudriere-devel

Following the instructions in /usr/ports/UPDATING at 20190701 for
changing the default installation from mysql5.6 to 5.7 results in
mysql-client being upgraded as expected and mysql56-server being removed
rather than upgraded. If mysql57-server is then installed, it won't
start.

This is in complete contrast to the type and detail and outcome of
upgrading any other server package, like apache or exim for instance.

Shouldn't there be a warning or even a link showing how to overcome
this in UPDATING?

thanks,
