Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
> Turns out that when dpkg configures the package, it tries to run
mysql_upgrade with the root user and no password, which is insane to do
to a database.
No, it tries to run mysql_upgrade as the debian-sys-maint user, which it
creates on installation and attempts to maintain for this purpose.
Doesn't it?
Could you please explain how you ended up with a broken debian-sys-maint
user, or otherwise give us steps to reproduce? When done, please change
the bug status back to New. Thanks!
** Changed in: mysql-5.7 (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
