It has been stated several times in this bug that the mysql maintainers have been approached about providing a package containing mysqld that does not auto-start a global mysqld instance. However I can find no such bug in the BTS filed against src:mysql-dfsg-5.1, archived or otherwise. If such a big exists then this one should be set to be blocked by the other; otherwise, such a bug should have been filed ages ago. -- Jon Dowland
