Package: mysql-server-4.1 Version: 4.1.14-6 Severity: normal On line 37 of /etc/cron.daily/mysql-server, it appears as though the script attempts to capture all stdout and stderr to $tmp. However, if you actually run this with binary logging turned off, the message:
ERROR at line 1: You are not using binary logging gets output to stderr, causing frequent cron emails to be sent. Since the next line in the script specifically tests for that message in $tmp, I do not think this is the intended behavior.
