I'm talking about changing the username
Sorry, answered the wrong question!
The username is not hard coded in the debian-start script, or the mysql
script in /etc/logrotate.d.
My reading of the mysql-server postinst script at
/var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.0.postinst is that the username amd
password in /etc/mysql/debian.cnf do not get replaced if the file exists
and the contents are correct. That section of the script is the same for
mysql-server-5.1.
So it *looks like* you could change that username, though whether
preservation will still be true for future upgardes is another question.
