Erreur lors de l'installation du paquet mysql-server

Tags: #<Tag:0x00007f63f1fde100>

Alors que je m’appète à faire un serveur mail, en suivant ce tutoriel https://www.tictech.info/post/mail_preparation#toc0 . Lors des premières étapes j’ai directement une erreur que j’essaye de résoudre, cela fait quelques jours…

L’erreur est :
apt install mysql-server

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
mysql-server is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 mysql-server : Depends: mysql-server-5.5 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Serait-ce une non-comptabilité du paquet, le tuto est en debian 7 alors que je suis en 8?
PS: J’ai/avais une base de donnée en MariaDB

En fassent apt-get -f install comme demandé dans le message d’erreur, une autre erreur intervient…

There is a MySQL server running, but we failed in our attempts to stop it.
Stop it yourself and try again!

Merci d’avance pour votre aide, n’hésitez pas à me demander plus d’informations

apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-common

rm -rf /var/lib/mysql/*
rm -rf /etc/mysql/*

apt-get clean
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

et tu re installe pour autant que tu n’aies pas mélangé les sources

Malheureusement même le remove induit en erreur…
