MySQL on Debian
Debian does not have MySQL in its repositories... :(
We can solve this!
Check the MySQL download page for current version...
If you're happy with 8.0.27, go ahead, download & install.
wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.20-1_all.debsudo apt install ./mysql-apt-config_0.8.20-1_all.deb
It may ask about distro version. On LMDE 4 or SparkyLinux 5, Select "debian buster" (It won't ask on Debian...)
Select "Ok"
Select "Ok"
Some versions will also ask about Configuring mysql-community-server
- Pick a good root password...
- I tend to select Use Legacy Authentication Method because Use Strong Password Encryption is annoying as hell. (Your choice here...)
Update & Upgrade everything now...
sudo apt updatesudo apt upgrade
Now you can go ahead & pretend they haven't dropped MySQL from the Debian repos...
VIM (& fixing it on Debian)
(as installed on Debian) has mouse weirdness. Selecting text with the mouse automatically enters visual mode. This prevents useful things like using the mouse to copy/paste while editing in the terminal. (Visual Mode is stupid...)
Solution
Either enter:
:set mouse-=a
during an editing session, or even better, put it (without the leading colon) in your ~/.vimrc file. (create the .vimrc file if it's not already there...)
vim ~/.vimrc
set mouse-=a
If you tend to use vim via sudo a lot... (duh... Who doesn't?)
sudo vim ~root/.vimrc
Sadly, this seems to turn off the colour syntax hilighting.
But!
add
syntax on
to the .vimrc files & it's back.
