Package: mysql-server-5.1 Version: 5.1.46-1 Severity: minor Tags: patch The bootup text about "upgrade needing tables" is awkward English and has bothered me for some time now. Yes, it's a really minor thing, but it's bugged me long enough that I've finally put a patch together to fix it. Attached please find a patch to /etc/mysql/debian-start which makes the boot message read more smoothly.
