I have no experience with mysql debs, but apt works this way:
apt-cache search mysql
should give you a list of packages that are related to mysql. These look
interesting:
mysql-client - mysql database client binaries
mysql-common - mysql database common files (e.g. /etc/mysql/my.cnf)
mysql-doc - mysql database documentation
mysql-server - mysql database server binaries
php3-cgi-mysql - Mysql module for PHP3 (cgi)
php3-mysql - Mysql module for PHP3 (apache)
php4-mysql - MySQL module for php4
www-mysql - a WWW interface for the TCX mySQL database
php4-cgi-mysql - MySQL module for php4-cgi
<among lots of others>
If you like some, you can install it with:
apt-get install mysql-common mysql-client php4-mysql
it is possible that more packages will be installed to saticfy
dependencies.
To remove:
apt-get remove mysql-client
It is as easy as that.
