Title:
  MySQL Server installation freezes if root password contains a single
  quote (apostrophe)

Status in mysql-5.7 package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in mysql-5.7 source package in Xenial:
  New

Bug description:
  Running linuxmint 18, had trouble installating mysql-server. After a
  fair amount of frustration, I dug around, found a temp file that had a
  command in it to change my root password, my password was there (in
  plain text), and had a clear problem with the apostrophe in the
  password.  It looked something like this:

  SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' =
  PASSWORD('YouWeren'tExpectingThis');

  I didn't save the file, did successfully install MySQL with a password
  without the single quote, and I'm not going to undo that all just to
  give a better bug report.  I'm sure your programmers won't have any
  trouble tracking this down.
