I think I had the same problem as you.
I found the solution at:
http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?35,40155,40155
First I made a backup folder for the mysql database files
mkdir /var/lib/mysql/mysql-backup
then moved there the database files
mv /var/lib/mysql/mysql /var/lib/mysql/mysql-backup
Then I reinstalled mysql-server with apt-get
apt-get --reinstall install mysql-server
It worked fine for me!
