Public bug reported:
Related bug: bug 1567696. This bug is to track that we are influenced by
$HOME, not specifically .my.cnf.
mysql-server-5.7 version: 5.7.11-0ubuntu4
Steps to reproduce:
As normal user:
cat > ~/.my.cnf <<EOT
[client]
user = root
password = foo
EOT
sudo apt-get install -y mysql-server-5.7
Every time (three times) it prompts for a root password, just press
Enter (ie. set a blank password).
Expected behaviour: apt-get finishes.
Actual behaviour:
mysql-server-5.7.postinst hangs on:
update-alternatives: using /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf to provide
/etc/mysql/my.cnf (my.cnf) in auto mode
/var/log/mysql/error.log reports:
2016-04-07T23:12:37.299093Z 0 [Note] Execution of init_file

Version: '5.7.11-0ubuntu5' socket: '/tmp/tmp.FFBBqKBiRF/mysqld.sock' port:
3306 (Ubuntu)
Workaround:
unset HOME in the postinst fixes it.
Comments:
There may be a second bug here, which is that the postinst is influenced
by a ~/.my.cnf. What happens if ~root/.my.cnf does something similar?
