Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.
The error says you're attempting to *downgrade* mysql-5.7, and to
confirm you need to remove a file and try again:
If are sure you want to downgrade to 5.7, remove the file
/var/lib/mysql/debian-*.flag and try installing again.
Since it seems likely to me that this is a local configuration problem,
rather than a bug in Ubuntu, I am marking this bug as 'Incomplete'.
However, if you believe that this is really a bug in Ubuntu, then we
would be grateful if you would provide a more complete description of
the problem with steps to reproduce, explain why you believe this is a
bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then
change the bug status back to 'New'.
For local configuration issues, you can find assistance here:
