package: mysql-server-5.5 Installation failed in chroot without correct /dev/null
If /dev/null is absent, than stderr-redirections create such file with non-empty content. After that postinst script add trash to /etc/mysql/debian.conf and mysql can't be started
Yes, it is very rare and strange situation, but, please, change "cat /dev/null > $dc" to
something like "echo -n > $dc" -- with best regards, Alexander Golovko email: alexan...@ankalagon.ru xmpp: alexan...@ankalagon.ru -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
