However when such an upgrade takes place I believe it's better not to proceed with the upgrade and warn the user that she/he needs to tweak their custom configuration files. In my case the upgrade was trying to continue and failed everytime with no aparent problem, until I checked the logs. regards, Rudy -- Rudy Godoy http://stone-head.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

hi, those config options are user-supplied and in the meatime deprecated. as far as I know there is no my.cnf config checker / tester which could point the user that he has to manual do config update but in terms of debian packaging it is not real our job to care about user defined config parameters?!

If you read the manual documentation for those options they have been deprecated since 5.1.17. Sounds like in 5.5 they were removed entirely. You should have transitioned away from these during Squeeze. The preferred place to set them is the master.info file which is configured via the CHANGE MASTER query.
