I have been trying to update MYSQL on my ubuntu 14.04.1 server following the directions here: MySQL 5.5 Update to MySQL 5.7 but have been running into some difficulties. I can run:
sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.0-1_all.deb
sudo apt-get update
but then when I get to:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
I get failure notifications as follows:
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these: The following packages have unmet dependencies: linux-image-extra-3.13.0-48-generic : Depends: linux-image-3.13.0-48-generic but it is not going to be installed linux-image-generic : Depends: linux-image-3.13.0-48-generic but it is not going to be installed mysql-server : Depends: mysql-community-server (= 5.7.17-1ubuntu14.04) but it is not going to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
MYSQL fails to update at this point. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
