Please could you try forcing a re-install of the mysql-dfsg-5.1 package
using the following commands:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall mysql-server
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install
This should resolve the first installation failure and put the
installation back into a consistent state.
** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.1 (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete

package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.41-3ubuntu12 failed to install/upgrade: Package is
in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a
removal.
