Could not select 'OK' in mysql-apt-config [Ubuntu 14.04]

Question

I am using Ubuntu 14.04. sudo apt-get update always give me this option to configure mysql-apt-config.

Answer 1

When you can't do

apt-get purge mysql-apt-config

because you're trapped: It won't execute because dpkg is interrupted, and "sudo dpkg --configure -a" backs you to the broken "configuring mysql-apt-config" screen...

edit: /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-apt-config.postinst

add exit at the beginning , then get rid of the package :

sudo dpkg --configure mysql-apt-config

sudo apt-get remove mysql-apt-config
