[debian-mysql] Bug#788398: mysql-common: [Warning] Using unique option prefix key_buffer instead of key_buffer_size is deprecated

[Bob Proulx]

Package: mysql-common
Version: 5.5.43-0+deb8u1
Severity: normal

Upgrading or installing mysql in Sid produces this loud warning.

  Setting up libmysqlclient18:amd64 (5.5.43-0+deb8u1) ...
  Setting up libdbd-mysql-perl (4.028-2+b1) ...
  Setting up mysql-client-5.5 (5.5.43-0+deb8u1) ...
  Setting up mysql-server-core-5.5 (5.5.43-0+deb8u1) ...
  Setting up mysql-server-5.5 (5.5.43-0+deb8u1) ...
  Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld.
  150610 16:50:21 [Warning] Using unique option prefix key_buffer instead of key_buffer_size is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use the full name instead.

Changing that to key_buffer_size as suggested silences the warning.

Thank you for maintaining mysql in Debian.

Bob
