This bug was fixed in the package mysql-5.7 - 5.7.15-0ubuntu2
---------------
mysql-5.7 (5.7.15-0ubuntu2) yakkety; urgency=medium
* Add working dir to perl lib path for dep8 upstream.
New versions of perl will no longer automatically include working dir in
the path. This was causing the mtr suite to fail to start.
* Change mysql-testsuite dependency from python to libjson-perl.
Tests written in python were rewritten in perl, so testsuite no longer
depends on python, but tests fail if libjson-perl is missing.
* Build with DWITH_LZ4=system
If the flag is not set the package will be built with a bundled liblz4
instead of the one provided by the liblz4-dev build-dep.
* Add support for custom datadir to systemd service (LP: #1574782)
The service was reporting errors if no database was found in /var/lib/mysql
It will now check the path specified in the config
* Fix support for soft-link datadir (LP: #1474212)
Upgrading more than once when datadir is soft-link was causing errors
* Escape special characters in password (LP: #1598992)
The password string was not escaped, causing SQL errors if certain special
characters such as apostrophes were included.
* Removed always-false check on purge in postrm (LP: #1602945)
Users were never seeing the query to remove data on a package purge
