Package: mysql-server Version: 4.0.24-10 Severity: important mysqld does not start. this is because previous config file has the "old_passwords = 1" directive in it which is no longer recognized.
Perhaps package should remove this directive or warn that previously distributed my.cnf is no longer valid? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.3 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages mysql-server depends on: ii adduser 3.66 Add and remove users and groups ii debconf 1.4.54 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdbi-perl 1.48-1 Perl5 database interface by Tim Bu ii libgcc1 1:4.0.1-3 GCC support library ii libmysqlclient12 4.0.24-10 mysql database client library ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.6-7 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libwrap0 7.6.dbs-8 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20050715cvs-1 A simple mail user agent hi mysql-client 4.0.24-10 mysql database client binaries ii mysql-common 5.0.7beta-1 mysql database common files (e.g. ii passwd 1:4.0.3-39 change and administer password and ii perl 5.8.7-4 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii psmisc 21.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-1 compression library - runtime mysql-server recommends no packages. -- debconf information: mysql-server/skip_networking: false mysql-server/really_downgrade_from_41: false mysql-server/want_chroot: false * mysql-server/start_on_boot: true mysql-server/postrm_remove_databases: false * mysql-server/mysql_install_db_notes: mysql-server/nis_warning: mysql-server/mysql_update_hints1: * mysql-server/postrm_remove_database: false mysql-server/fix_privileges_warning: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
