Thanks for reporting this bug and helping to make ubuntu better.
The dpkg log shows that it wanted to stop mysql, but wasn't sure how. So
it asked you to stop mysql yourself, then retry the upgrade.
Could you please post here the result of
'ps -ef | grep mysql'
? Then do a 'stop mysql' and re-try the upgrade.
