OK, now I see you problem. The packages listed on the right have been linked against an older version of MySQL. If you try to upgrade to the latest version of MySQL (which includes a newer version of the libmysqlclient library), it would also replace the package that includes the library needed for these packages. As a workaround, you could try to omit the MySQL-shared package (it's not required for the client and server package anyway). This should leave the old MySQL client library installed on your system, thus resolving the above dependency problem.
