I got the following while trying to install mysql-server on Debian:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.5.postinst: line 146: logger: command not found ATTENTION: An error has occured. More info is in the syslog! /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.5.postinst: line 236: logger: command not found
Fixed by running:
apt-get --reinstall install bsdutils
