Hi again, The problem is solved. It turned out, that the password for the "debian-sys-maint" user in mysql was not equal to the one in the /etc/mysql/debian.cnf file. (I have no idea why not - I don't usually mess with this user)
Sorry for the inconvience. /Torben -- package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.37-1ubuntu5.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/666682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
