The dependency is on either dpkg >= 1.15.4 or install-info, issuing apt-get -f install will fix it by installing install-info.

install-info does not seem to be available on lenny:

http://packages.debian.org/sid/install-info

its only available on sid, squeeze and lenny-backports.

We are unable to install percona5.5 on lenny.

Solved in 5.5.13-20.4 for lenny. Compiled for lenny avoiding the install-info or dpkg 1.15 dependency.

libmysqlclient18 installs with dpkg 1.14.31 and no install-info installed.
