Title:
  Dependency on mysql not recognised

Status in “redmine” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: redmine

  During installation of Redmine, configuration of mysql database is
  performed which requires the password for the mysql database
  administrator. If mysql-server has not been installed, this stage
  fails. There should be some check that mysql-server is available and
  if not, a message should inform the user how to reconfigure the
  application after fixing the issue. Mysql is not a dependency of
  Redmine because the database backend could be on another host or a
  different database engine.
