Public bug reported:
The problem seems to be caused by Apparmor. For example in
/var/log/syslog:
Mar 19 20:04:39 lyra kernel: [ 6979.352113] audit(1205957079.490:28): operation=

name="/opt/share/mysql/english/errmsg.sys" pid=3861 profile="/usr/sbin/mysqld"
namespace="default"

Did
apt-get remove --purge apparmor
apt-get -f install
the mysql server components then upgraded OK and the server started.
I don't know about Apparmor, but from the looks of syslog, it looks as
though there was a problem with the apparmor acls; I noticed that during
the mysql server install, a script appears to load up the apparmor rules
and these rules appear to be preventing a clean mysqld upgrade.
Previous upgrades of mysqld under Gutsy on this machine have been
problem free.
