[Bug 885554] [NEW] mysql-server-5.1 Unpacking Halts 11.04-11.10 Server Upgrade

[Ron Adams]

Public bug reported:

During do-release-upgrade, the following output occurs:

Preparing to replace mysql-server 5.1.54-1ubuntu4 (using .../mysql-server_5.1.58-1ubuntu1_all.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement mysql-server ...

The upgrade halts there indefinitely. I issued a service mysql stop and
then output continued:

mysql stop/post-start, (post-start) process 19685
Unpacking replacement mysql-server-5.1 ...
Preparing to replace mysql-server-core-5.1 5.1.54-1ubuntu4 (using .../mysql-server-core-5.1_5.1.58-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb) ...

The rest of the upgrade seems to be passing without incident. Can
someone confirm this bug? It seems odd that mysql would have a problem
stopping itself to allow the upgrade, but that is apparently the case.
It is worth nothing this appears to not be a new issue. See:
