Corecting name and adding the state of things at the beginning:
mysqld is not starting when /etc/mysql/conf.d is not empty, even though
it contains only optional information.
In conjunction with bug 305107 this leads to mysql failing to start
after a security upgrade from the default version in the normal apt
repository to the newest security update version.
More explanation below:
---
I just did a security upgrade for my Hardy system, and after the reboot,
mysql refuses to start!
Errors already appear at system start, here the output of the command
when I try to start the server manually after system start(errors are
the same):
/etc/init.d/mysql restart
