I'm trying to install MySQL on my Xubuntu system. I've been having problems installing it for an entire day now. I tried installing it and removing it multiple times, but of course the problem didn't magically solve itself.
With mysql-server uninstalled, I typed the next command:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
And I'm getting the next output from it:
Fri Dec 30, 13:05, ~ $ sudo apt-get install mysql-server
