Hi Rafael, I think you should just close this bug down. As you say it was mostly my fault for messing around with some of the installed packages, I was trying to install MySQL 5.7 previously.
Was simple to resolve, just removed mysql-server-8.0, 'apt autoremove' and re-installed. Worked fine the second time. The curse of auto-report :-) I thought it was a one click report for statistics, not a full blown bug report, I will click with caution next time. Simon.
