@Francois,

a) The first issue seems to have occurred because there was a
mysql package. So, the recommended install is to remove existing
mysql, percona-server packages before doing a new pxc
installation.

b) Did you remove the data directory (assuming test data) when it asks during purge? Otherwise,
you will need to run mysql_upgrade manually on 5.5 data
directory.

Also, purge doesn't remove the cnfs under /etc/mysql (these have
some debian passwords) and/or my.cnf. Also, some of the my.cnf's variables for 5.6 may not
apply to 5.5.
