[Bug 563039] Re: package bacula-director-mysql 5.0.1-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Charles Marslett]

Agree with Scott Moser: this looks like it could be related to
installing MySQL at the same time as bacula.  At least that was what I
did, and saw the issue.  Check issue #404768 for the same issue fixed
around 2009-09-20 (chuck.short at canonical.com).

Another bug report mentioned fixing it with a reconfigure:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure bacula-director-mysql

I think that worked but I had to answer 'ignore' to a question I really
did not understand.

This bug/feature keeps popping up every release, much like the issues
with integrated video on AMD laptops.  It may really be a problem with
release management, but I don't know how to fix it.  Perhaps apt needs a
second set of dependencies for the configuration steps at the end of the
install so you can configure and start mysql before configuring and
starting bacula-director-mysql.  It seems that is probably a common
requirement.
