Well, I'm very new to this and I was actually installing the woody Mysql server onto a potato system and I was actually getting a slightly different error message using the dpkg command (dpkg -i mysql-server3.23.28)
I was able to complete the install and get it set up after I also installed all of the Mysql-server.deb dependencies including the the unstable version of debconf and both of the following libs: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/base/libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2.html http://packages.debian.org/unstable/base/libstdc++2.10.html I can't really tell you why it worked, but it did.
