Hello,
i know somehow i made a booboo (do not correct me on that! I KNOW).
Somehow i have Mysql 5.0 installed from Ubuntu's repository alongside Directadmin's Mysql 5.5
i believe it still persists from the first delivery from my hosting provider (all setup with LAMP / FTP and SSH)
but my understanding from http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=44473 is that everything unnecessary is deleted by directadmin.
Okey so far the info.
Now every time i do a update/upgrade on Ubuntu it says Mysql needs upgrading.
John has told me once i needed to remove the /etc/mysql directory.
but it keeps coming back (the directory and the update warning)
so how can i SAFELY remove the Ubuntu's Mysql
or remove it from DPKG / APT so i can do a upgrade of Ubuntu.
can i do a purge mysql? or will it affect Directadmin's Mysql as well?
kind regards,
Arnold
