Doesn't surprise me.
Ubuntu always ship fucked up, broken, shitty MySQL versions.
Look at the one that is current HEAD on 10.04 LTS. It's got so much broken stuff in it, we had to move everything to a spare windows machine where we could stick a later version on without screwing up the machine (DBs for: team city, jira, crucible).
- viraptor 14y agoWhy migrate to a completely different environment? I'd recommend just installing some version of percona server (mySQL flavour) instead. You get both better software and upstream version instead of a repackaged one.
- gouranga 14y agoIt was what was there as a piece of duct tape for the minute. I'm in the process of binning it all and moving to Debian which is actually trustworthy...
- pgeorgi 14y agoexcept that they try to optimize randomness in security libraries every now and then.
- gouranga 14y agoAny more details? Not had any problems on that side of things yet.

- gouranga 14y agoThanks for this - interesting read :)
- pgeorgi 14y agoAlso http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/04/msg00528.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/04/msg00528.html (but that's just some internal governance tool)
- gouranga 14y agoThanks for link :)
- StavrosK 14y agoWhy would you screw up the machine if you just installed the latest deb?

- air 14y agoIt's squarely a MySQL bug, you can't put any blame on Ubuntu here.
- gouranga 14y agoIt is but they've fixed it in MySQL and Ubuntu have pinned the HEAD mysql build to the broken one and have pretty much stopped supporting it. LTS my arse.
