I've tested running the upgrade with different scenarios and everything works. Basically, if you ever get into such a situation again, please try to debug the exact reason why mysqld refuses to start. Best tip is to look at the /var/log/mysql/error.log You can always purge your installation along with any configs and original binary data, and then import a database dump into a fresh installation, but that is not recommended. Surely it should be possible to pinpoint why mysqld does not start (and thus why dpkg hangs at the service restart step). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
