Mysql update keeps causing problems, how to win?

Question

MySQL

Hello everyone
There is a problem, I can not overcome.
apt update && apt upgrade -y - when updating the whine, it crashes, the console hangs, only ctrl+z registers and restarts only after the server is rebooted, no matter
what commands I tried - nothing helps to fix the situation.
The funny thing is that the school has been updated, but it is listed that there is an update - you update it - everything falls.
The commands below call for a new update and everything is in a vicious circle, maybe somewhere a broken cache has got in the way and needs to be cleaned out?
apt-get install -f && dpkg --configure -a
apt-get install -f && sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get install -f

Try the following options:
- first stop the mysql service and in its off state upgrade
- upgrade mysql separately via mysql_upgrade.
- reinstall mysql-server
