Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

I think we have seen some other reports of mysql_upgrade failures like
this but so far had been unable to reproduce and did not have a
technical explanation. Thank you very much for providing this. We can
probably duplicate other reports to this bug.

Separately, we're overhauling how mysql_upgrade is called due to bug
1592669. Our planned solution for that bug is to no longer use invoke-
rc.d to start mysqld before running mysql_upgrade at all. Instead we'll
run a "private" daemon that runs with networking and ACLs disabled in a
root-only private socket so that mysql_upgrade can then run unhindered,
and then shut it down again. So when that bug is resolved, I think this
(looks valid) bug will become moot.

I subscribed Lars for his attention.

Thank you again for the report.
