Public bug reported:
while applying latest ubuntu server x86_64 mysql-
server-5.5.35-0ubuntu0.12.04.2 update, mysql-server becomes completely
broken, bruised, battered, botched and b0rked. Unable to start mysql. No
lock files, no stale sockets, all tables were working fine prior to
update. dpkg is unable to install anything now because mysql-server is
unconfigured. aptitude reinstall does not produce a working mysql
daemon. no success with aptitude install after after issuing apt-get
remove, autoremove, autoclean (and/or equivalent aptitude incantations).
Have also tried removing/purging/cleaning/autoremove/autoclean followed
by deletion of /etc/mysql as well as all production tables in
/var/lib/mysql to no effect. something is simply busted with mysql-
server-5.5 update. Curiosly enough, /usr/bin/mysqld_safe DID INDEED
start the production mysql instance (prior to apt/aptitude battle this
morning).
