Package: mysql-server-5.5
Version: 5.5.52-0+deb8u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The problem didn't happen on all systems and I'm not sure what exactly is going 
wrong. During a apt-get upgrade run MySQL failed to upgrade..
Some weird stuff:

syslog:
mysqld_safe[22411]: 160918 10:22:05 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld (mysqld 
5.5.52-0+deb7u1-log) starting as process 22431 ...
mysqld_safe[22411]: 160918 10:22:05 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld (mysqld 
5.5.52-0+deb7u1-log) starting as process 22445 ...

Why is it trying to start twice as two different processes?

mysqld_safe[22580]: ERROR: 1064  You have an error in your SQL syntax; check 
the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax 
to use near 'ALTER TABLE user ADD column Show_view_priv enum('N','Y') CHARACTER 
SET utf8 NOT ' at line 1
mysqld_safe[22580]: 160918 10:22:08 [ERROR] Aborting

mysqld_safe[13729]: ERROR: 1050  Table 'plugin' already exists

I now ran MySQL manually by executing mysqld but I'd like to solve this 
properly.

Gr,
Olaf

Version: 5.5.46-0+deb8u1+rm

mysql-5.5 was last released with Debian 8 (jessie) in April 2015
and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
It has been superseded by mariadb (and mysql-8.0, but that does not get into a stable release).
See https://bugs.debian.org/811158 for details on the removal.
I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.

Andreas
