Re: unable to install mysql server

I have purged mysql-server mysql-client using the following command :

# aptitude purge --purge-unused mysql-server mysql-client

and then i issued command :

# updatedb

I have again tried to install both of the packages, instead of downloading packages, i has took me directly to provide password for mysql and mysql is not configured properly.

I have changed the debian mirrors, my mirror list is :

#

The output of # dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0

/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: mysql-server-5.0 is broken or not fully installed.


I hope the above might make some sense :)
