I have a mysql dump with 5 databases and would like to know if there is a way to import just one of those (using mysqldump or other).
Suggestions appreciated.

You can pipe the dumped SQL through sed and have it extract the database for you. Something like:
cat mysqldumped.sql | \
sed -n -e '/^CREATE DATABASE.*`the_database_you_want`/,/^CREATE DATABASE/ p' | \
sed -e '$d' | \
mysql
The two sed commands:
Only print the lines matching between the CREATE DATABASE lines (including both CREATE DATABASE lines), and
Delete the last CREATE DATABASE line from the output since we don't want mysqld to create a second database.
If your dump does not contain the CREATE DATABASE lines, you can also match against the USE lines.
