well, to avoid reconfiguring uninstalled packages, I use aptitude and tomboy/knotes
just ask sudo aptitude purge mysql-common
and it will display a list of packages needs to be removed, copy and paste them to notes.
then accept the solution.
After complete removal and reinstalling mysql
copy the list of apps from notes and write in console
sudo aptitude install [CTRL + SHIFT + V] [HIT ENTER]

that will save your couple of days... :D
