Package: mysql-server-5.0
Version: 5.0.27-1
Severity: important
Hello,
mysql-server cannot be started or stopped if Splashy is installed. It
cannot be installed nor removed either (since installation and
removal scripts start and stop the server).
Here is the output while trying to install mysql-server package (with
Splashy already installed) :

There is a MySQL server running, but we failed in our attempts to stop
it.
Stop it yourself and try again!

(I hit CTRL-C at the end, after "start" failed, since nothings happens
for several minutes).
Purging splashy package cause the problem to disapear.
It seems to be due to the "set -u" command, at the beginning of
/etc/init.d/mysql script, which cause the script to abort, since
$RUNLEVEL is not defined. Other init.d's scripts like Apache doesn't set
this flag, but I don't know what is the correct behavior to have in this
case.
Thanks,
