@Guillaume Plessis : I know that ubuntu is not supported, but it has been working 100% fine until now.

The problem was that MySQL could not stop for some reason. I had to kill the MySQL processes as desribed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5195967&postcount=5, and then update after.

Thanks for keeping PHP and MySQL up-to-date ;D

@Anders : Ubuntu is not supported by Dotdeb. Please check your logfiles and error messages to know why it crashes.

I’m on Ubuntu 9.04 and I get this error when I try to update:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-server-5.1_5.1.36-0.dotdeb.1_amd64.deb: underproces nyt pre-removal-script returnerede afslutningsstatus 1

… solved. Seems that your 5.1.36 doesn’t like your libgoogle-perftools0. After uninstalling and removing from the initscript, mysql runs fine.

I get a

Starting MySQL database server: mysqld/etc/init.d/mysql: line 111: 21634 Segmentation fault /usr/bin/mysqld_safe > /dev/null 2>&1
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . failed!

while upgrading.

Is that one already known or should I provide further information, e.g. an strace or something?
