Please note the lines in your log:

Jul  3 20:25:07 c6 /etc/mysql/debian-start[20758]: Version check
failed. Got the following error when calling the 'mysql' command line
client
Jul  3 20:25:07 c6 /etc/mysql/debian-start[20758]: ERROR 1698 (28000):
Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost'
Jul  3 20:25:07 c6 /etc/mysql/debian-start[20758]: FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed


It means the credentials in your /etc/mysql/debian.cnf file are not in
sync with your actual database tables. This indicates a installation
spesific issue, not a general bug, so I'll drop the severity.
