The mysql version that I can install with from lenny packages is 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.9, but, for the hell of it :-) the developers require 5.5.8. I've been googling around and found "alien" to convert rpm to deb, I also found some packages in ppa's but I'm not installing those in production. What would be the best/recommended way to install mysql 5.5.8? Thank you for your ideas, Cheers!
