Is MySQL available in Testing?

[Roger Chrisman <rogerhc@pacbell.net>]

Hi,

I have Postgress installed from Testing.

Today I tried to install MySQL from testing and got this error:

Package mysql is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package mysql has no installation candidate

Is MySQL available in Testing?

Any ideas why I got that error message?

Relevant bash session follows:

p3a:/home/ever# apt-get update

Get:2 http://linux.csua.berkeley.edu testing/main Release [81B]
