Sorry, I forgot to mention my entire procedure. Here's exactly what I
did:
1) I purged mysql-server.
2) This of course, left my /var/lib/mysql subdirectory intact. I then
moved /var/lib/mysql to something like /var/lib/mysql.good.
3) I did a reinstall of mysql-server and it went smoothly.
4) I then shut down mysql killed the new /var/lib/mysql subdir and moved
the "good" subdirectory back to being /var/lib/mysql.
5) After restarting the server, all ran well.
