Package: mysql-client Severity: minor *** Please type your report below this line ***
Hello, I was about to install mysql-client and saw that mysql-doc was suggested, so I thought I'd install that too. Is this a bug? # apt-get install mysql-client Reading Package Lists... 0% Reading Package Lists... 100% Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... 0% Building Dependency Tree...

SQL (Structured Query Language) is the most popular database query language in the world. The main goals of MySQL are speed, robustness and ease of use. . This package includes the client binaries for the 4.0 branch. I went ahead without the -doc package checked the readmes etc for the -client package. They don't mention this issue. I could not see any bug reports about this. Presumably this related to a non-freeness in the documentation? -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-3-386 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
