MySQL 5.1.54 packages are now available on Dotdeb in amd64/i386 flavours for Lenny and Squeeze.
As usual, please read the Changelog of this maintainance release before upgrading.
Now, about MySQL 5.5 (I was asked on Twitter or in the comments here), it will be available on Dotdeb as soon as it is in Debian Sid or experimental. Please be patient. If you don’t need some 5.5 specific features, such as semi-sync replication, and if you just need to boost your InnoDB performances, you really should take a look at your /etc/mysql/my.cnf file and enable the InnoDB plugin.

Sorry, it’s fixed now.
Hello,
i have add in /etc/apt/sources.list (debian lenny):
deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
and after upgrade, i hve this warning in phpmyadmin :
“The version of your MySQL library (5.0.51a) differs from the version of your MySQL server (5.1.41). This may cause unpredictable behavior. “
with :
# dpkg -l | grep mysql : >> i see :
ii libmysqlclient15off 5.0.51a-24+lenny2 MySQL database client library
ii libmysqlclient16 5.1.41-1.dotdeb.1 MySQL database client library
ii mysql-client-5.1 5.1.41-1.dotdeb.1 MySQL database client binaries
ii mysql-common 5.1.41-1.dotdeb.1 MySQL database common files (e.g. /etc/mysql/my.cnf)
ii mysql-server-5.1 5.1.41-1.dotdeb.1 MySQL database server binaries
ii php5-mysql 5.2.11-0.dotdeb.1 MySQL module for php5
how i can remove libmysqlclient15off ??
@bros : as said many times on this blog, don’t worry about that delta between the client side and the server side, it does not affect the PHP behaviour.
The version of the MySQL client library PHP was built with is different to avoid some duplicate symbols and segfaults. Then, removing libmysqlclient15off is impossible.
I hope it’s 5.5.6 – I’ll be looking forward – as I’m waiting for the ability to use variables limit values in stored procedures 🙂
@Guillaume Plessis : many thanks you for your reply.
good luck for Dotdeb.org project !
Hi, can we expect mysql 5.5 packages? When?
Thanks for your great repos.
@Jan : I don’t have enough free time to work on it (the autotools=>Cmake migration does not ease the process), but I keep an eye on Debian and Ubuntu and I will provide backported packages as soon as possible :
http://packages.debian.org/mysql-server
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.1/+bug/690925
MySQL 5.5 will be available on Dotdeb for Debian Squeeze. We just don’t know when.
@ Guillame: I understand, thanks for reply anyway. I’ll keep an eye on dotdeb webpage.

@Pedro : could you please give us the output of these commands?

dpkg -l mysql-server-5.1

Thank you
Sorry, I thought apt-get update & apt-get upgrade was enought.

Yes, your MySQL version (5.1.39) was a bit old. Upgrading to 5.1.54 is a wise decision 🙂
@Guillaume Plessis, what do you think about add Sphinxsearch plugin to mysql package ?
@Serge : interesting feature request, but I have no plan for this yet. Sorry.
okay, i understood.
Thanks.
Trying to update in a several Ubuntu 10.04 boxes, I get this error:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mysql-client-5.1: Depends: libncurses5 (>= 5.7+20100313) but 5.7+20090803-2ubuntu3 is installed.
It seems that the requested library is not yet in the ubuntu repositories?? I’ts an alternate way to fix it?
@Xavi : First of all, Dotdeb is made for Debian, not for Ubuntu. It should work with this last one, but dependency problems like yours may occurs.
My advice : use this line in your sources.list
deb http://packages.dotdeb.org lenny all
Ok. No errors get from now. Many thanks!!
