[mythtv-users] How to repair mysql?

[Igor Cicimov]

Run
# dpkg -P mysql-server-5.5
to completely remove the package. When told some package depends on it then
include that one too in the above command. Then install all of them again.
Alternatively run reinstall
# aptitude reinstall mysql-server-5.5
