[debian-mysql] Bug#535500: mysql-dfsg-5.1: Don't ask for root password when upgrading from 5.0 to 5.1 - ask root password at priority high instead of medium

[Mathias Gug]

Package: mysql-dfsg-5.1
Version: 5.1.34-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu karmic ubuntu-patch

In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:

  * Merge from debian experimental (and 5.0 from main), remaining changes:
    - debian/mysql-server-5.1.config:
      + ask for MySQL root password at priority high instead of medium so
        that the password prompt is seen on a default install. (LP: #319843)
      + don't ask for root password when upgrading from a 5.0 install.

We thought you might be interested in doing the same.
