MySQL on debian amd64



Hi Debian fans,

Today I installed and configured MySQL (its not the first time I am doing this 
so I am a bit puzzled).

1) I am unable to set the default-character-set in /etc/my.cnf.

I tried "default-character-set=ujis" and "default_character_set=ujis" under 
the [mysqld] section, but both dont work.

Is this a possible bug ?
Who is actually packing the files MySQL AB themselves ?

2)How would I know the full .deb package name (including version number) 
containing the mysql server files. Using "dpkg --list mysql-server" just 
gives me the version number?

 I am actually looking foran equivalent to "rpm -qi <packagename.rpm>". 

Any reply would be much appreciated.

Best regards

Nils Valentin
