Thanks Jean-Baptiste, but I have same problem as Ben. When I try: $ sudo apt-get install --reinstall mysql-server-5.1 It's always stop without return just after: Preparing to replace mysql-server-5.1 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.1 (using .../mysql-server-5.1_5.1.41-3ubuntu12.1_amd64.deb) ...
It's seems that the problem appears during the pre-removal process, I manually did a: $ sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop // and not a: $ sudo stop mysql And I after I did: $ sudo dpkg --purge --force-all mysql-server-5.1 And now It's OK -- package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.1 failed to install/upgrade: Le paquet est dans un état incohérent - vous devriez le réinstaller avant d'essayer de le supprimer. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/589297 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mysql-dfsg-5.1 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
