After the update, I attempted to restart mysql but got:

   * ERROR: mysql failed to start

myhost : Sun Jan 15, 12:23:55 : ~

and in the log:

I have this since years !
Can't manage to get this error out !
I will look at the tread carefully !

You could try:

ps axf | grep mysql

and then kill<PID>  of mysql before you try to restart it.

I can try that this weekend (this is a production server), but that would not be a *fix*, only an ugly workaround.

No one else is having this problem or has an idea of how to fix it properly?
