Bug Description

Binary package hint: proftpd-mysql

mysql is a common proftpd authentication backend. Installing proftpd-mysql could have some default behavior where it can automatically create the necessary db and tables from some user-supplied information. This way, the user does not need to manually create the mysql tables and edit the proftpd config files.

I had to manually create the necessary tables and config options. The information I used for this process is here:

The standard dpkg ``Do you want me to do this for you'' would be great.
