Package: mysql-server
Version: 4.0.23-1
Followup-For: Bug #287323

I got the same error on this that Erich did, and then when I tried
restarting my daemon, I got this error: 


localhost:~# /etc/init.d/mysql restart
Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld.
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld.
/usr/share/mysql/debian-start.inc.sh: 6: Syntax error: "(" unexpected


Which explains why the call to mycheck failed.  Line 6 has a bashism (I
assume).  A diff to make this function definition correct for a standard
/bin/sh: 


6c6
< function mycheck() {
---
> mycheck () {
