Package: mysql-server-5.0
Version: 5.0.51a-24+lenny4
The debian-sys-maint mysql user created in the postinst scripts of the
mysql-server package is missing the SHOW VIEW privilege. This prevents
the user from performing certain dump operations which are useful for
scripting cronned mysql backups from replication slaves.
Let me know if you need more details.
Thanks,
Brian

Thomas,
Someone moved all the bugs from old mysql packages onto the latest. So
now we have to triage an extra hundred or so bugs to find the few that
are still relevant. I could not see it as an issue but the changelog was
not clear. Thanks for the quick response.

this is should be considered an issue and some confirmations from other

Thank you, Nicholas. And no, it isn't an issue anymore - it has been
fixed in the meantime. Please note that this bug has been reported for
Debian Sarge, that's the one we have had once upon a time, long before
Lenny and even longer before Squeeze...
Regards,
