When this happens you have to open a terminal, get the process id for mysql-server-5 then kill that process. Like this:


ps -A

then from the list of processes that it spits out look at the process id (the number at the beginning of the line) for mysql-server-5.

now type


sudo kill -9 XXXXX

where XXXXX is the process id for mysql-server, and enter your password.

the upgrade process should now resume.
