Package: mysql-dfsg-5.0 Version: 5.0.21-2 Mysql sources include a comprehensive test suite in the mysql-test subdirectory. As part of the debian build process, this is not run. I don't consider this fact a bug, because the test suite takes ages to run even on a big machine.
However, running the test manually after building (before installing), the test suite does not pass. The first test that fails is 'create': /home/wg/Debian/mysql-dfsg-5.0-5.0.21/mysql-test% ./mysql-test-run Logging: ./mysql-test-run Installing Test Databases Removing Stale Files Installing Master Databases running ../sql/mysqld --no-defaults --bootstrap --skip-grant-tables --basedir=. --datadir=./var/master-data --skip-innodb --skip-ndbcluster --skip-bdb --language=../sql/share/english/ --character-sets-dir=../sql/share/charsets/ Installing Master Databases 1 running ../sql/mysqld --no-defaults --bootstrap --skip-grant-tables --basedir=. --datadir=./var/master-data1 --skip-innodb --skip-ndbcluster --skip-bdb --language=../sql/share/english/ --character-sets-dir=../sql/share/charsets/ Installing Slave Databases running ../sql/mysqld --no-defaults --bootstrap --skip-grant-tables --basedir=. --datadir=./var/slave-data --skip-innodb --skip-ndbcluster --skip-bdb --language=../sql/share/english/ --character-sets-dir=../sql/share/charsets/ Manager disabled, skipping manager start.

I have verified this behaviour on two completely different systems, one which is basically woody with gcc-2.95, and one which is basically sarge with gcc-4.0. Of course, the failures may be harmless and caused by a debian patch, however in that case a note should be added in the debian subdirectory (I couldn't find anything on running the test suite there).
