Mysql installation - Operation not permitted
Hello,
Since over one week, I have been consistently searching for a solution to my mysql installation errors. I surfed many sites on google to get rid of the issue. Now google gives me all the same results, I tested many of those solutions provided by... Now I am pulling hair

I am under ubuntu16.04 pc. Normally it was installed earlier. Then I faced incompatibility issues between mysql version and the softwares. So, removed mysql with below commands earlier.
Code:
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-common
rm -rf /etc/mysql /var/lib/mysql
apt-get autoremove
apt-get autoclean
apt-get purge mysql*
apt-get -f install
apt-get update

Then I run below command to install mysql with other essential programs in ubuntu 16.04:
Code:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server php php-mysql php-pear nodejs libapache2-mod-php

I am receiving below error.
Code:
mv: cannot move '/etc/mysql/my.cnf' to '/etc/mysql/my.cnf.dpkg-backup': Operation not permitted
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-common_5.7.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.2_all.deb (--unpack):
 subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-common_5.7.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.2_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

kernel version:
Code:
root@pc:~# uname -r
4.9.148-xxxx-std-ipv6-64

If I can not solve this issue, I will have to reinstall ubuntu 16.04 from scratch.
I'd appreciate your recommendation

Kind regards
Boris
