Public bug reported:

I have Ubuntu 15.10 (wily) and am trying to update MySQL to the latest
version.

When I run aptitude safe-upgrade, it fails like so:

Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Bug 1468185 seems to imply the InnoDB errors are safe to ignore:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.6/+bug/1468185

The MySQL daemon *is* currently running — I'm not sure what the start
script error is.

Removing and reinstalling results in the same error.
