Ehm?   How do you have upgraded Lenny to Squeeze?

The right way is to change lenny > squeeze in your /etc/apt/sources.list
run 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get dist-upgrade' and here  you  will  get
the right "mysql-server".

It seems you where not running

    apt-get dist-upgrade

so do it correctly!

Maybe a 'invoke-rc.d syslogd restart' help?
