I used apt-get update and upgrade to update packages, and then I received a message about a possible package replacement.

From what I understood, it's related to the database.

I want to know if proceeding with this update will not cause me to lose any possible optimization configurations that WordOps might have made on the database or the package being replaced.

I canceled the update because I didn't know how to proceed. I really appreciate anyone who can help!

-------------- Message that appeared after the update:

Configuration file ‘/etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf’
==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer’s version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** 50-server.cnf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?

    Good practice is to keep existing ones. I recently clicked new and if something didn't work I looked for where the error was.

    Renan I agree that you should keep the WordOps optimized .cnf and chose the default "N". Even when the current version is overwritten with chosing "Y", a backup should automatically be created so a rollback of the previous 50-server.cnf is possible.
