Bug#287978: /var/lib/mysql symlink removed

[Christian Hammers <ch@debian.org>]

Hi

Sean: During lunch break I examined my changelog entry for 4.0.23-1
which "fixed" the problem by removing /var/lib/mysql from the
mysql-server.dirs i.e. /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server.list file so
that dpkg did no longer knew about the connection between the dir and
package and thus does no longer remove it.

So we can fix the woody-sarge upgrade just by uploading a new
package to stable-proposed-updates and hoping that Joey makes a
new Woody update before the Sarge release, right, or am I missing something?
(not yet tested though)

bye,
