[debian-mysql] Bug#548419: mysql-server-5.0: Split package (embedded vs. stand-alone server)

[Mathias Gug]

Hi,

Note that Ubuntu has already done the split for the same reasons
(akonadi starts its own mysqld process). This is why there are two
packages: mysql-server-core-5.1 and mysql-server-5.1.

mysql-server-core-5.1 ships mysqld and the necessary files to get it up
and running:

/usr/sbin/mysqld
/usr/share/doc/mysql-server-core-5.1/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/mysql-server-core-5.1/changelog.gz
/usr/share/doc/mysql-server-core-5.1/copyright
/usr/share/man/man8/mysqld.8.gz
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/Index.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/README
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/armscii8.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/ascii.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/cp1250.xml

/usr/share/mysql/charsets/cp1257.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/cp850.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/cp852.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/cp866.xml

/usr/share/mysql/charsets/geostd8.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/greek.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/hebrew.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/hp8.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/keybcs2.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/koi8r.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/koi8u.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/latin1.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/latin2.xml

/usr/share/mysql/charsets/latin7.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/macce.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/macroman.xml
/usr/share/mysql/charsets/swe7.xml
/usr/share/mysql/czech/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/danish/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/dutch/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/english/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/estonian/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/french/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/german/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/greek/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/hungarian/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/italian/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/japanese/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/korean/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/norwegian-ny/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/norwegian/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/polish/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/portuguese/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/romanian/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/russian/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/serbian/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/slovak/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/spanish/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/swedish/errmsg.sys
/usr/share/mysql/ukrainian/errmsg.sys

The mysql-server-5.1 package ships the rest of the files, notably mysqld
init script. Moreover akonadi depends on mysql-server-core rather than
mysql-server.
