Why did you do this > Christian? :) Because we have mysql-server (4.0) and mysql-server (4.1). When Sarge was due to release (um, was it last year or the one before...) MySQL 4.1 was already declared stable but in a 4.1.very_low version so I though for those conservative database guys it would be better to have the choice between a matured and the funky new version. > I am on holiday so I do not have time to test thi (much).

As long as you package works if either mysql-server-4.1 or mysql-server is installed it is ok. thanks, -christian- ----- End forwarded message ----- ----- Forwarded message from Christian Hammers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- From: Christian Hammers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Kai Hendry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: Riccardo Magliocchetti <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: unofficial wordpress package issue Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2005 08:58:48 +0100 Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: www.debian.org X-Originating-ASN: AS12407 WESTEND GmbH, Aachen Hello Kai On 2005-03-01 Kai Hendry wrote: > On Mon, Feb 28, 2005 at 10:13:35AM +0100, Christian Hammers wrote: > > > bilbo$ apt-cache show mysql-server-4.1 |grep -i prov > > > Provides: mysql-server, virtual-mysql-server > > > bilbo$ apt-cache show wordpress | grep -i depends > > > Depends: httpd | apache, php4 | libapache2-mod-php4, php4-mysql, > > > mysql-server (>= 4.0.20-8) > > The "provides" to "mysql-server" was added recently to avoid problems with > > packages that don't use virtual-mysql-server. > > So how should I change my Depends line?

Either use "mysql-server-4.1 | mysql-server (>= x.y.z)" or just skip the versions and use "virtual-mysql-server". Or the latter and a conflict to "mysql-server (<< a.b.c)"? Regarding debian-sys-maint, it is very unlikely that somebody still has a mysql version without it, or? bye, -christian- ----- End forwarded message ----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
