[Bug 522185] Re: package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.37-1ubuntu5 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[Sinquin David]

I don't know if I had the same bug as the message I had when I updated was that dpkg couldn't stop mysql.
I tried "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop" but it failed. Then I did "sudo killall mysqld" which worked, I re-launched "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop" : it worked. Then "apt-get upgrade" did his work fine… Mysql seems to work fine now.
