I keep a copy of the Maemo packaging policy in dead tree format right  
next to me, so let me check.

If your package is re-packaged for maemo a maemo revision MUST be  
appended, but you do not have to keep the etch specific part. So it  
might look like mysql-dfsg-5.0_5.0.32-0maemo3. Furthermore I cannot  
find a package called mysql-dfsg in debian's package search tool: http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=mysql-dfsg&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

Where does this package come from? Is it the client or server part of  
mysql? Or both?
