Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mysql-server

A couple of days ago I upgraded my laptop from feisty to gutsy.  I had a
feisty mysql server database on the laptop.  The upgrade broke the
database.  Following different googled "how to fix this" from the
internet just dug the problem in deeper.  I'm going to have to do a full
purge and reload to get mysql back up and running.  The bogus "how to
fix" notes on the web are not your problem, but mysql should have
performed the steps necessary for an automated upgrde (I assume use
original mysql to dump the db to a sql file ready to create and load a
new db, then wiped the original db, finally with new mysql recreating
and then loading a new db in the correct format for mysql 5.

** Affects: mysql-dfsg-5.0 (Ubuntu)
