Public bug reported: This affects the version of mysql-dfsg-5.0 in hardy. Intrepid is up to date enough to work correctly.
Upstream bug: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=34192 [copied and reworded a little from the upstream bug] mysqldump in 5.0.51 SILENTLY fails to dump databases from mysql 4.0 server. The dump of any 4.0 database is missing the data. It's because now mysqldump unconditionally runs (client/mysqldump.c): my_snprintf(buff, sizeof(buff), "show create table %s", result_table); if (switch_character_set_results(mysql, "binary") || mysql_query_with_error_report(mysql, &result, buff) || switch_character_set_results(mysql, default_charset)) DBUG_RETURN(0); where switch_character_set_results() are not supported on mysql < 4.1 ** Affects: mysql-dfsg-5.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: + This affects the version of mysql-dfsg-5.0 in hardy.
