Bug Description
Since I only use the mysql server for development, I tend to keep the server disabled with systemctl. If mysql server is upgraded while the service is disabled, apt-get fails. To remedy this, I must run "systemctl enable mysqld" before "apt-get upgrade". Since I found a work around, it isn't a big deal, but a less experienced user may have trouble diagnosing this. Possible solutions are:
1) Better error message
2) If the server must be running for upgrade, the upgrade could start it. Maybe prompting first.
