Thanks for your report.

The error was
Unpacking mysql-server (from .../mysql-server_5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1_all.deb) ...

 * Stopping MySQL database server mysqld

   ...fail!

invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "stop" failed.

invoke-rc.d returned 1

There is a MySQL server running, but we failed in our attempts to stop it.

Stop it yourself and try again!

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-server_5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1_all.deb (--unpack):

 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1

Is it still an issue ?
