Not knowing what version has been upgraded to what version makes it a bit more difficult to see if the database formats have changed in the process of the upgrade. The best solution would be to remove the new mysql (but don't purge!), install the old mysql (probably have some dependency issues here), and do a mysqldump of the database to a file, and upgrade mysql again to the testing/unstable version, and mysqlimport the dump file. To be honest, I thought the install scripts would upgrade the database, I'm sure that's happened when I've had to upgrade mysql, but I'm not 100% certain. I hope that is /some/ help...
