I'm getting rather frustrated because I'm not getting any response from
Canonical about this problem.
Here is some additional stuff that I tried.
I reverted back to Ubuntu 14.04 and tried to 'just' upgrade mysql to
5.7. I got similar messages about not being able to access
/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.
Please read this to understand what the REAL underlying problem was and
how to solve it manually.

I am still concerned at Canonical's inability/unwillingness to engage
with me about the above reported bug.
Clearly they either have much BIGGER problems OR are not interested in
very small users.
SAD REALLY.
