[debian-mysql] Bug#792354: mysql-server-5.6: Missing dependency on environment-modules

[Lutz Fischer]

Package: mysql-server-5.6
Version: 5.6.25-4
Followup-For: Bug #792354

Dear Maintainer,

Just updated my system and mysqld failed to start and therefore failed
to configure after installation.

The error message I got was:
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld-su: 12: .: Can't open
/usr/share/modules/init/sh

After a bit of internet search I found that this folder is provided by 
environment-modules

So nstalled that package and mysql started - and configured ok...

Looks like there is a dependency on that package, but is not mentioned
in mysql-server-5.6.


   * What led up to the situation?
     Update mysqlserver to 5.6 (not sure what version I had before)
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     effective was installing environment-modules
   * What was the outcome of this action?
     mysql-server-5.6 got started and configured
