For those of you Karmic users who, as I, cannot live without readline and don't want to wait until somebody backports the package to Karmic: What I did was to uninstall mysql-server and mysql-client and install mysql-client-5.0 mysql-server-5.0. The server will fail to downgrade, even after mysql-server-5.1 has been removed, so one has to remove /var/lib/mysql/debian-5.1.flag and run apt-get -f install to finish installation (or better, now that you know and don't have to find out for yourselves, remove the debian-5.1.flag file after removing mysql- server-5.1 and before installing mysql-server-5-0).
Now I have readline and my vi-style editing-mode again. -- some keys print characters instead of performing their actions: ex: delete key generates ~ https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/451801 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
