Why not just say "mysql-server-5.0 cannot be installed due to ..." and abort. Let the user fix it as this would just mean more complicated and error prone stuff to our package scripts. I don't expect soo many users out there with ISAM tables anyway. Hm, I just see that there's a script mysql_convert_table_format but still we could only mention it and not directly convert the tables as this would need a running mysql server and IIRC the server will be down in every case when the preinst script of mysql-server-5.0 as the prerm of mysql-server-4.1 stopped it. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
