If you're running debian stable (sarge), then the official mysql package
is 4.1. If you want 5.0 on sarge backports.org can help. If you want
quick and dirty, adding the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list will
give you access to backports.org packages.
deb http://www.backports.org/debian/ sarge-backports main
Adding these lines to /etc/apt/preferences will keep the backports.org
packages from overriding official debian packages
Package: *
Pin: release a=sarge-backports
Pin-Priority: 200
Run apt-get update and then search for mysql 5 and you should find
packages available.
Note that packages from backports.org are not official debian packages,
however.
