Forwarding issue to pkg-mysql-maint as requested by Robie Basak. If there are any questions, feel free to ask.
Hey, I have no glue why mysql refuses to start. Did you tried to copy the data dir to tmp and try again? Maybe mysql maintainer can help here, why mysqld doesn't want to start. mysqld tells us, that the defaults-file and data dir is not accessable anymore with the new version. But if we use ls to show file permissions it tells us, that the permissions are okay (644/755). The background is, that akonadi starts an mysqld with datadir= /home/ <USER>/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ as <USER>. You can see the complete mysql.cnf in the bugreport https://bugs.debian.org/ cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=843534#55 (Test 8) Best Regards, sandro -- Am Donnerstag, 10.
