[Bug 1493299] Re: package mysql-server-core-5.6 (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/sbin/mysqld', which is also in package mysql-server 5.5.44-2

[Robie Basak]

Thank you for your report.

mysql-5.5 version 5.5.44-2 never shipped in Ubuntu. If the source of
this package supports this use, then please file a bug there.. So from
Ubuntu's perspective this looks like a local configuration problem,
rather than a bug in Ubuntu.

You can find pointers to get help for this sort of problem here:
http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community

Since we use this bug tracker to track bugs in Ubuntu, rather than
configuration problems, I'm marking this bug as Invalid. This helps us
to focus on fixing bugs in Ubuntu.

If you believe that this is really a bug, then you may find it helpful
to read "How to report bugs effectively"
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful
if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem,
explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem
specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to New.


** Changed in: mysql-5.6 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
