Right. "mysqladmin ping" threw that warning and then died. Installing Sarge's mysql packages made the DB work again. I didn't investigate this any further, and the system was downgraded again in the meantime (which was a pita due to tons of backports that were installed, but that's another issue). I can't say which other packages were affected, the only client for that mysql DB is horde/imp(3), and that even seemed to work without the DB. The proper fix would have been to make the Woody mysql packages depend on that specific libc6 version, but that's too late now. I doubt making Sarge's libc6 Conflict: with the Woody mysql makes sense here, but I can't think of another way to fix it now. Should I give the upgrade another try in a chroot sandbox and then file a (RC?) bug that mysql is not upgradable? Christoph -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.df7cb.de/
