Sorry, I missed your email on Friday. I saw it earlier today so prepared
the signed source packages. I spent some time doing some further testing
and uploaded the signed source packages to:

http://people.canonical.com/~rbasak/mysql-5.5/

In addition to the dep8 tests (not present in wheezy), I've also done a
quick smoke by hand. I understand that you may not be able to upload
wheezy but I figured that at least it's here for the LTS team if they
want to take it.
