Upgrading mysql from 5.0 to 5.1

[niv]

Hi all,
Congrats for the new web site, too bad the wiki is offline and also the ,mailing list link.
I am using proxmox 1.5 on a two node cluster. I am running mysql and was looking to allow master-master replica . here are the steps I took to achieve this:

1. download the files at http://archives.dotdeb.org/dists/lenny/mysql-dfsg-5.1/5.1.46/binary-amd64/*.deb I used wget.
2. apt-get remove mysql-server-5.0 mysql-client-5.0
3. dpkg -i *.deb
4. to fix this error: Error in Perl code: Cannot create semaphore with key 31818: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl5/Apache/Session/Lock/Semaphore.pm line 104
   . do: apt-get install --reinstall libapache-session-perl

Proxmox VE has no mysql so I do not understand what are doing here.

if you need mysql 5.1 on lenny, take it form backports and install it via apt.
