Hi,
Mysql can't start, on my Ubuntu 12.04. There is an error in a apparmor profile.

You could found the fail case, and a "workaround" to getting it work.

Running as root:
# service mysql start
start: Job failed to start
(in log) init: mysql pre-start process (6912) terminated with status 1

While investigating I found this error:
# /lib/init/apparmor-profile-load usr.sbin.mysqld
AppArmor parser error for /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld in /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld at line 44: Could not open 'local/usr.sbin.mysqld'
# debsums -a mysql-server-5.5 |grep apparmor
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld OK

At this point I made a backup of original /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.orig and I had a space like the diff show.

# diff /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.orig
44c44
< # include <local/usr.sbin.mysqld>
---
> #include <local/usr.sbin.mysqld>
# /lib/init/apparmor-profile-load usr.sbin.mysqld
# echo $?
0

Trying to running mysql service again give no error
# service mysql start
mysql start/running, process 7994

And debsums failed:
# debsums -a mysql-server-5.5 |grep apparmor
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld FAILED

Validating that mysql-server is loaded:
$ mysql -u root -p <<< status
