Description:
The Server Documentation for 5.5 discusses the process of performing an upgrade.  It says that you must upgrade 5.1 to 5.4 before you upgrade to 5.5.

My understanding of the situation is that 5.4 has been rolled into 5.5, and that no 5.4 will be released.  It is no longer available as a download.  Therefore the documentation needs to be updated showing the process for upgrading from 5.1 to 5.5 directly.

How to repeat:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/upgrade.html
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/upgrading-from-previous-series.html

Suggested fix:
Alter documentation to show the steps for upgrading from 5.1 to 5.5.

Thank you for the bug report.

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been addressed in the documentation. The updated documentation will appear on our website shortly, and will be included in the next release of the relevant products.
