I just updated to mysql-5.1.50-r1 on a x86 box, ran revdep-rebuild which |
| 30 |
amidst others rebuilt apache and php and all is good now. dispatch-conf |
| 31 |
updated only a couple of lines on the config file. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
The default paths were not affected on any of the 5 mysql databases I'm |
| 34 |
running currently. |
