In which case I withdraw my quibble, as it clearly _does_ say "mysql". It also says "mysql-server-5.0" - you need the whole name. Use: "aptitude search mysql" to find all the possible packages with mysql in the name, or 'aptitude search mysql | grep "^i"' to find the installed packages. -- derek -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
