Package: mysql-server-4.1
Version: 4.1.11a-4sarge7
Severity: normal

The mysqld_multi program (used to run multiple instances of a MySQL
server) is looking for the config at /etc/my.cnf whereas Debian uses
/etc/mysql/my.cnf.

mysqld_multi outputs no kind of warnings or errors - in fact, the only
way I found out was by running it through strace when I couldn't get it
working!

Lines 425-435 seem to be the interesting ones. Either changing them,
adding a warning that no config file could be found, or at least
documenting this problem would be nice. :)

Looks like it's the same with the 5.0 packages as well.
