I guess you are the package maintainer, are you ? Excuse-me for not being clear. You understood right; but I still don't see which bug number you refer to.I didn't get any bug number, only the message. >>>> Having a sight to my install, dbconfig-mysql actually isn't installed, >>>> and when I ask to install it, the package "dbconfig-no-thanks" need to >>>> be uninstalled. >>> dbconfig-mysql and dbconfig-no-thanks conflict on purpose, so can't be >>> installed together.

(Do you mean the upgrade/reinstall log ?I am now at office, I shall do that after going back to home). As I said yesterday in a later message, phpmyadmin doesn't work anymore. I tried to reinstall it after also installing dbconfig-mysql, there is no more message, but phpmyadmin still doesn't work.(Depending on the browser, I get either a blank window (iceweasel) or a "error 500" message (chromium) [configuration problem ?].) >>> That is a severe bug, as >>> dbconfig-no-thanks is supposed to prevent dbconfig-common from doing >>> anything (including emitting the warning you see above. >> Well, mySQL still works anyway :) > dbconfig-common has nothing to do with the MySQL package itself. > dbconfig-common is a helper package for packages like phpmyadmin to > manage the connection to MySQL (or some other database). OK. I now understand why phpmyadmin doesn't work anymore. I was confused by the first part of the message: "MySQL database support detected"... >>>> Is it now necessary to do so ? >>> Yes, unless you don't want dbconfig-common support.Than you should leave >>> dbconfig-no-thanks installed and leave dbconfig-mysql uninstalled. >>> >>> How and why did you install dbconfig-no-thanks in the first place? >> As far as I know, this was done the first time I installed LAMP, a while >> ago.

And all worked fine until this last upgrade. Is it a mean to know what happened ? Thanks for your help ! Regards. -- GD.
