mysql-server depends on mysql-server-5.0. So when you install it, it will also install mysql-server-5.0.
Did your client have mysql-server-5.0 installed already? In that case, a simple 'aptitude upgrade' would suffice, as our packages have higher version numbers. -- Debian etch repo problem? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288904 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OurDelta- developers, which is the registrant for OurDelta.

This page: http://ourdelta.org/deb/pool/etch/ourdelta/ shows these files: mysql-server-5.0_5.0.67-d6ourdelta15_amd64.deb 15-Oct-2008 23:38 26M mysql-server-5.0_5.0.67-d6ourdelta15_i386.deb 15-Oct-2008 23:14 25M mysql-server_5.0.67-d6ourdelta15_all.deb 15-Oct-2008 23:38 54K so for some reason, apt-get install mysql-server was installing mysql-server_5.0.67-d6ourdelta15_all.deb instead of the right package....the sources.lst was done with: wget -O- http://ourdelta.org/deb/ourdelta.gpg | sudo apt-key add - sudo wget http://ourdelta.org/deb/sources/etch-ourdelta-sail.list \ -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ourdelta.list and cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ourdelta.list is # OurDelta repository for Debian 4.0 "Etch" binary packages. # deb http://ourdelta.org/deb etch ourdelta-sail which matches http://ourdelta.org/deb/sources/etch-ourdelta-sail.list (sorry for the craziness, but this is me being the middle person for a client who wanted to install it himself. :) ) === and finally...the problem really is: http://ourdelta.org/debian says: Packages mysql-server mysql-server-5.0 mysql-common-5.0 libmysqlclient15off mysql-client-5.0 libmysqlclient15-dev --------------------------------------- but mysql-server is like a meta-package of 55kb that doesn't do anything really. You should either make that really really really clear, or make it really really really clear that mysql-server-5.0 is the package you want to install if you want the ourdelta mysqld server. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ourdelta-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ourdelta-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
