Very useful tutorial, thanks! Is there any way to change the folder that localhost refers to? For example, could I change it so my localhost was ~/Web?

I’m having a similar problem as Ray. libapache2-mod-auth-mysql and php5-mysql both installled but getting error “E: Couldn’t find package phpmyadmin”.

I’ll keep trying since it worked for Urlaub, but is there some other way to get this package?

Thanks for the tutorial.
@ray: it works with me, maybe just a temporary bug?

please note inorder to get phpmyadmin working I had to open /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and add the line…
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
then restart apache
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
