[debian-mysql] Bug#587426: Change default permissions of /var/lib/mysql

Package: mysql-server-5.1
Version: 5.1.47-1
Severity: minor

By default the post-install scripts always set the permissions
of /var/lib/mysql to 700, even if the directory has a mysql:mysql
ownership. In my opinion this should changed to 770 as the mysql group
should have free access to the MySQL data files too.
