Hello,
I was about to install mysql-client and saw that mysql-doc was
suggested, so I thought I'd install that too. Is this a bug?

Description: mysql database client binaries
MySQL is a fast, stable and true multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database
server. SQL (Structured Query Language) is the most popular database query
language in the world. The main goals of MySQL are speed, robustness and
ease of use.
.
This package includes the client binaries for the 4.0 branch.
I went ahead without the -doc package checked the readmes etc for the
-client package. They don't mention this issue.
I could not see any bug reports about this.
Presumably this related to a non-freeness in the documentation?

This bug was reported back when the bts didn't have version tracking, and the
maintainer apparently forgot to close this bug when etch was released.
Based on the changelog, the last mentions of mysql-doc were removed in version
5.0.18-8.
