Hi Christian,

Sorry, I was not very clear, and thank you for the prompt reply. I have tried the workaround before I posted my comment here. It does not work. Note I cannot uninstall MySQL. I need it. And yes, I don't want the service to run on boot, preferring to start it manually (Although I can change this of course, probably pads a couple milliseconds @ boot time but SSD speed is almost negligible). :)

From what I read above and in other reports, this is what I have done so far:
1) enable the service - systemctl enable mysql.service
2) start if not yet started - systemctl start mysql.service
3) apt upgrade

But it seems the `enable` command has some errors - sudo systemctl enable mysql.service

Result:
Synchronizing state of mysql.service with SysV init with /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install...
Executing /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable mysql
