Upgrading from Ubuntu 11.04 to the next version seems to reinstall Mysql. Any way to ignore MySQL install during OS Update?

if you want to avoid that apt-get upgrade update certain package, you can "hold" it in the following way:

Hold a package (do not upgrade):

sudo apt-mark hold <package-name>

disable hold (upgrade package the usual way):

sudo apt-mark unhold <package-name>

for MySQL:

sudo apt-mark hold mysql-server
