That was one of the first things I tried but it didn't work out, it leads to 
more problems.

That was a brilliant suggestion. I knew about "dpkg -S" but somehow I assumed 
that everything related to mysql-server was removed when I purged it. Not so.

mysql-common was left over as some other packages depended on it and that was 
causing the problem. Purging mysql-common (and the dependent packages) and then 
reinstalling resolved the issue.

Thanks a lot for your help.
