**Build Script Update** *(22 Nov 2010)*
* [Revision #88](https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~maria-captains/ourdelta/ourdelta-montyprogram-fixes/revision/88)
* [Bug #674413](https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/674413): Misconfigured debian-sys-maint user, warnings from default my.cnf\
Fix two problems reported in [Bug #674413](https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/674413):
* The debian-sys-maint account was not created, due to new field auth\_string\
added in [mysql.user](/docs/server/reference/system-tables/the-mysql-database-tables/mysql-user-table.md) in 5.2 with no default value and postinst script\
not updated.
* Default my.cnf in 5.1+ uses log\_slow\_admin\_statements without enabling\
the slow log, causing warnings. Fix by commenting out this by default.
