    Package disaster

    So I tried installing MariaDB, a replacement for Mysql. The installation failed and Im now in package hell. Ive tried correcting everything with apt-get install -f, but it doesnt work.
    Code:
    $ sudo apt-get install -f

    Ive basically been going in circles for a full day now trying to resolve dependency issue only to create new ones. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Have you 'updated' the package cache before attempting the fix?

            Try running sudo apt update again followed by sudo apt install -f again.

              Same error. It seems like no matter what I do, I always end up back at this error. It looks like it may be a mysql issue, not a package issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...7/+bug/1573279 Ive tried most of the suggestions there, but none of them seem to work for me.

                Remove/purge MariaDB maybe, then install/reinstall/fix mysql?

                    If I try to purge both mysql and mariadb, Im going to end up scrubbing a lot out of my system.

                    $ sudo apt purge mariadb-client-10.0 mariadb-common mysql-client mysql-client-5.7 mysql-client-core-5.7 mysql-common dbconfig-mysql

                      Got it. At the end of the launchpad issue I posted above was a post that exactly described the exact issue I was having. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...79/comments/18
                      Doing what was described in there plus deleting all the my.cnf files and mysql directories in the system allowed me to install mysql successfully. Thanks for your help, Snowhog.
