This is normal. You may have something that still depends on
libmysqlclient15 , which was not ABI compatible with libmysqlclient16. Its
usually a transitional package and will go away when all
reverse-dependencies are gone.

php5-mysql should be using libmysqlclient16. You can tell that by running

apt-cache show php5-mysql|grep ^Depends:

> IMPACT
>
> This bug will affect any users of php that have installed the php5-mysql module, and so the impact is fairly high. Meanwhile, the patch is fairly small, and is already released in later upstream versions.

> DEV RELEASE STATUS
>
> This was fixed upstream in mysql v5.1.40, which is well below the
> Maverick version, 5.1.49. Lucid also has 5.1.41, and so is not

> REGRESSION POTENTIAL

> The change is very tiny and seeing as the patch has been in use in
