I have same specs as OP and received same error through synaptic.

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

According to the error message the script was killed by a signal? Did you interrupt the installation process?

Could you also please provide the following information:

 * content of /var/log/daemon.log related to mysql processes:

    /var/log/daemon.log

 * apparmor audit messages related to mysqld:

    /var/log/kern.log

 * mysql configuration stripped of private information (such as password):

    /etc/mysql/my.cnf

 * extra mysql configuration from the conf.d directory:

    /etc/mysql/conf.d/
