[Bug 760443] [NEW] Bacula installation fails at dbconfig-common stage

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have a Ubuntu 10.4.2 server, updated to the latest binaries.

I have attempted to install bacula using apt-get install bacula.  The
process seems to go well until the various dialogues to set up the MySQL
db connection.  After entering the password, the dbconfig-common script
attempts to connect to the MySQL  database and fails, even after various
retries.

As soon as I select 'abort', the apt proceeds to install the MySQL
server.  This of course explains why the dbconfig-common script fails,
as it needs to be preceeded (not followed) by the MySQL server
installation.

Causing MySQL server to be installed first should resolve the issue.

** Affects: bacula (Ubuntu)
