Ok thanks for the tip Wayne
I tried most of that already and it still did not work for me but will
re-trace my steps and pay closer attention to the my.cnf's rather than
just the simple apt purge options with wildcards.
Thanks again

No it still breaks, the fix is to apt remove MySQL server. Finish the
upgrade (dpkg -a) then delete any reference to my.cnf or mysqld.cnf in
/etc/mysql and /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/
Once you've done that reinstall mysql server. Your database data will
not be deleted.
If you leave any references to my.cnf it will fail to install so make
sure you move them all wherever you need them.
Also don't use MySQL 5.7 with Rivendell. There are some patches in
the stable branch to fix the problems, hopefully they will make the
next Rivendell release but I haven't had time to double check/test
everything to give Fred the Ubuntu OK.

Anybody know if ubuntu server 16.04 LTS has got the mysql server
install via dist-upgrade problem sorted out yet? and/or what the fix
is?
It flags a problem with mysql server 5.7 as being downloaded and
installed but generates an error because it was not configured which
then prevents re-installing it from scratch as there uncompleted error
flag does not clear when one purges any mysql packages to attempt a
clean re-install.
