That's done.
Good. Out of curiosity, which bug number?
Don't understand the question... There were no more information than the
message itself, which appeared twice: one at the beginning of the
upgrade process, one when upgrading phpmyadmin...
Having a sight to my install, dbconfig-mysql actually isn't installed,
and when I ask to install it, the package "dbconfig-no-thanks" need to
be uninstalled.
dbconfig-mysql and dbconfig-no-thanks conflict on purpose, so can't be
installed together. But are you now saying that you saw the message
above while dbconfig-no-thanks is installed?
Yes, that's what happened.
That is a severe bug, as
dbconfig-no-thanks is supposed to prevent dbconfig-common from doing
anything (including emitting the warning you see above.
Well, mySQL still works anyway :)
Is it now necessary to do so ?
Yes, unless you don't want dbconfig-common support.Than you should leave
dbconfig-no-thanks installed and leave dbconfig-mysql uninstalled.
How and why did you install dbconfig-no-thanks in the first place?
As far as I know, this was done the first time I installed LAMP, a while
ago. I didn't specifically require dbconfig-no-thanks, I suppose it came
with all the stuff. Until today, I wasn't aware there were possible
alternatives, and my question was about what is the right thing to do (I
only use mySQL and don't clearly see the advantages of installing
dbconfig-mysql).
