This is in my opinion the essential part of the problem: why I don't
get "the information that should appear for any database upgrade
failure"? Why mythth-setup doesn't provide any clue about the failure?
I've switched on the mysql log, but i don't see anything suspicious in it:

The console log is also available for completeness:

Yes, and a brand new system (Debian sid).
If so have you actually let

I've restarted mythtv-setup several times for several reasons - by
mistake the first invocations were not logged and now I only vaguely
remember that I followed Wiki to solve some minor issues. Now I always
end at "Couldn't upgrade database to new schema"
BTW, Google provides several hundred hits for this message. The hits
checked by me doesn't seem relevant for my problem, because in other
cases always some additional error messages are available.
Best regards
