[Bug 1031568] Re: package bacula-director-mysql 5.0.3-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1. Also, the database it needed could not be created.

Hi Matthew, thanks so much for taking the time to file a bug report.

This is a common problem, but not actually a bug I'm afraid.

Unpacking mysql-server-5.1 (from .../mysql-server-5.1_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.11.04.1_i386.deb) ...
Selecting previously deselected package bacula-sd-mysql.

Because mysql-server can only be a "recommends" of bacula (since it
might live on another server and not actually be depended on), apt and
dpkg are free to configure the mysql server *after* bacula. But this
breaks the bacula installation scripts.

I would recommend that you remove bacula, and then install mysql-server,
let it fully set-up, then install bacula.
