As there were many requests for Debian binary packages in our announcement of Percona builds with custom patchsets, we decided to play with it and built .deb, which you can find there:
https://www.percona.com/blog/mysql/debian/
You can also add the following repositories into your sources.list:
deb http://percona.com/blog/mysql/debian/5.0/ binary-amd64/
deb http://percona.com/blog/mysql/debian/5.0/ source/
deb http://percona.com/blog/mysql/debian/5.1/ binary-amd64/
deb http://percona.com/blog/mysql/debian/5.1/ source/
Also we have generic RPMs for x86-64 architecture:
https://www.percona.com/blog/mysql/RPM/. They are based on .spec file provided in MySQL source tree and should be compatible with SuSe, CentOS and RedHat.
Your comments are welcome!

Thank you!
Many thanks!
May I suggest to build a full deb repository by adding a signed Release file and an apt key ?
Thanks
Vadim, thanks for the Debian binary package. We really appreciate it.
Much appreciated, Vadim! MySQL .deb packages are indeed very rare to find.
Hello,
I downloaded the Debian packages from http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/mysql/debian/,
but I think I´m to foolish to install.
I installed the packages
mysql-common_5.0.62_all.deb
mysql-server_5.0.62_all.deb
mysql-client_5.0.62_all.deb
with dpkg -i
but it run still the old version. If I take a look to the list of installed packeges it seems ok.
Whats wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo

Thanks a lot!
Hello,
I still miss the binarys for:
mysql-common_5.0.62_all.deb
mysql-server_5.0.62_all.deb
mysql-client_5.0.62_all.deb

Ricardo,
*_all.deb contains platform independent files. You have to install main packages compiled for your platform.
Presently we have only amd64 packages. You can find it by the link above.
Hello,
thanks a lot for this packages but they depend of “libc6 (>= 2.7)” and “libncurses5 (>= 5.6+20071006-3)”, versions which are not on Debian Etch.
Can I ignore this ? Or should I rebuild this packages ?
Hi,
Olivier, they are compiled against Debian SID 😉
I am testing the microslow patches with this binaries, but I don’t know the sintax of log_slow_verbosity. I try:
set log_slow_verbosity=”microtime,query_plan,innodb”;
ERROR 1210 (HY000): Incorrect arguments to log_slow_verbosity
Thanks!
Carlos,
Does set global log_slow_verbosity=”innodb” work ? It should turn on all three options.
It does, thank you very much.
Regards
any chance these packages will be updated?
Michael,
We have plans to support .deb, not any specific date for now.
