distribution of unix/linux that includes mysql.
Unfortunately, yes. It's also upstreams fault.
But why can't Debian do better?
A apt-get install mysql-server after a default Debian Etch install does
not ask for a password. If that's due to the priority, the priority of
the question should be raised.
Although I'll say again that I'd prefer an auto generated random
password that the install script stores somewhere securely.
