Comment 4 for bug 394036

What needs to be to move things forward on dapper is to figure out which version of mysql has the fix.

1. Narrow down the range of versions to test by testing mysql packages from every release (edgy, feisty, gutsy).
2. Figure out if mysql keeps an archive of all previous releases. If not, look at the bzr branches - they may use tag for each release.
3. Use the bisection method to find out which release of mysql fixed the bug by building a binary package for each release.
4. Go through the list of changes for that release and figure out which patch has fixed the bugs.
