Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
mysql-server-5.0: Depends: mysql-client-5.0 (>= 5.0.18-3bpo1) but it is not going to be installed
                    Depends: libdbi-perl but it is not installable

A backport consists of the MySQL 5.0 packages built for Sarge.

Etch will be the next version of Debian, which is currently in-testing.
If you're not sure what to do, go with the backport.
