Hi Jan

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug in Ubuntu.

It looks like your previous installation of mysql was in a very inconsistent state.

Please can you try purging mysql-server (rather than just removing) and then re-installing which will clear the record of any previous configuration files:

   sudo apt-get purge mysql-server\*
   sudo apt-get install mysql-server

Hopefully this will resolve your issue.

Marking 'Invalid' for the time being; if you still believe this is a bug please set back to 'New'.
