[Bug 708537] Re: package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.9 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script killed by signal (Segmentation fault)

[James Page]

This looks like a installer issue rather than a mysql-server issue:

(from Dmesg.txt)
[ 2768.320060] frontend[8475]: segfault at 4 ip 00007fefbb591237 sp 00007fff6c2f84b0 error 4 in libperl.so.5.10.1[7fefbb4ee000+162000]

(from DpkgTerminalLog)

..... and lots more.....

frontend is part of debconf.
