To configure MySQL in Ubuntu and similar (set root password and other settings) read this guide.

Debian 12

apt-get update && apt-get install -y git cmake make gcc g++ clang libssl-dev libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libncurses-dev libboost-all-dev lsb-release gnupg wget

Remember that if you are using the root user, it is not necessary to use sudo.

Note: By using the option -y, it will start installing without the need for you to confirm.

Install MySQL

1. Visit the MySQL APT repository page to verify and download the latest script version.

export MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION=0.8.33-1

1. Download the latest MySQL repository information package.

wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb

1. (Recommended) Verify config authenticity. If you encounter any issues with this step, please refer to: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/checking-gpg-signature.html

wget "https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gpg/?file=mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb&p=37" -O mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb.asc
gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys A8D3785C
gpg --verify mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb.asc mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb
rm -v mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb.asc

1. Non-Interactive install using DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" to install the latest MYSQL-LTS release, e.g. mysql-8.4-lts without any user prompts showing up.

sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" dpkg -i ./mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb
rm -v ./mysql-apt-config_${MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION}_all.deb
unset MYSQL_APT_CONFIG_VERSION
sudo apt-get update
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" apt-get install -y mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev
