Package: mysql-server, mysql-server-4.1
Version: 4.0.24-7
Severity: critical


apt-get install mysql-server
apt-get remove mysql-server
apt-get install mysql-server-4.1
dpkg --purge mysql-server
***boom***


Depending on your answer to "postrm_remove_databases", this
has deleted all your data or "only" destroyed your MySQL
installation.


BTW1: The same can happen to mysql-server-4.1 if the user had
      removed but not purged mysql-server from woody some years
      ago and purges it now.

BTW2: This is a nice example for the class of data loss bugs
      testing cannot catch because it might take some time
      until the first usre falls into this trap.

Changes: 
 mysql-dfsg (4.0.24-8) unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * The "do you want to remove /var/lib/mysql when purging the package" flag
     from old versions is removed once this package is beeing installed so
     that purging an old Woody mysql-server package while having a
     mysql-server-4.1 package installed can no longer lead to the removal of
     all databases. Additionaly clarified the wording of this versions Debconf
     template and added a check that skips this purge part if another
     mysql-server* package is in status 'installed' or 'hold'.
     (thanks to Adrian Bunk for spotting that problem) Closes: #307473
