Public bug reported:

Probably relates to #1612517

Looks like mysql is not able to upgrade from 5.5 to 5.7 (trusty to xenial).
I'm not sure from which version the config originates. After the option to send 
this report, I also saw this message in the terminal:


Setting up mysql-server-5.7 (5.7.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.1) ...
Renaming removed key_buffer and myisam-recover options (if present)
ERROR: Unable to start MySQL server:
2016-10-18T16:07:35.642062Z 0 [ERROR] unknown variable 'table_cache=256'
2016-10-18T16:07:35.648308Z 0 [ERROR] Aborting

After removing the opposing statement from /etc/mysql/my.cnf (and starting 
apt-get -f install) the upgrade continued successfully (DB and tables upgraded 
and DB started) and the server restarted OK.
JFYI
