For Debian 7
Wheezy
, these problems have been fixed in version 5.5.50-0+deb7u2.Regression note: I have wrongly built the previous 5.5.50-0+deb7u1 upload over the jessie-security debian packaging. Although I have not identified any issues on amd64, I have uploaded a new release built on the regular wheezy packaging.
We recommend that you upgrade your mysql-5.5 packages.
