I stopped the what complained, exactly? note that nagios-mysql does not depend on mysql-server intentionally, as there are cases where the local administrator may decide to use a remote database. > I setted the severity to grave because a -mysql package unable to connect to > mysql database is pretty unuseful. i'm changing the severity, because it's perfectly able to do so, but in some cases it may require manual intervention before it can operate. yes some applications still require this :) so in closing, i'll happily add mysql-server stuff to the recommends: line for the package (and thepackage description), though this won't prevent your problem from re-occurring. it seems you may have also encountered some kind of bug in the config file generation, but i'm not sure if that's the case or ifit's only an after-effect of the previous problem. in any case if you do believethere's a seperate bug about this problem, please provideme with a littlem ore information about it and how i can reproduce it, otherwise i'll close the bug when i upload the package with the changes i've mentioned above. sean
