Package: mysql-common
Version: 5.1.37-1
Severity: normal
The new my.cnf for 5.1 contains the following:
# * Logging and Replication
#
# Both location gets rotated by the cronjob.
# Be aware that this log type is a performance killer.
# As of 5.1 you can enable the log at runtime!
#log_type = FILE
#general_log = /var/log/mysql/mysql.log
#
# Error logging goes to syslog due to /etc/mysql/conf.d/mysqld_safe_syslog.cnf.
#
# Here you can see queries with especially long duration
#log_slow_queries = /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log
#long_query_time = 2
#log-queries-not-using-indexes
#
# The following can be used as easy to replay backup logs or for replication.
# note: if you are setting up a replication slave, see README.Debian about
# other settings you may need to change.
#server-id = 1
#log_bin = /var/log/mysql/mysql-bin.log
expire_logs_days = 10
max_binlog_size = 100M
#binlog_do_db = include_database_name
#binlog_ignore_db = include_database_name
If one uncomments the log_type or general_log lines, mysql will fail to start,
as these are invalid config file options:

I don't know what log_type should be. What you may want is this:
general_log_file = /var/log/mysql/mysql.log
general-log=1
