Hi!
Reproduced following scheme of repositories:

 

With package pinning:

 

 

Following packages installed:

 

 

mysql-common package is dependency for libdbd-mysql-perl-4.046-1 which comes from default repositories(ubuntu)

 

 

Percona-server-server package depends on percona-server-common, which is replacement for mysql-common – They(mysql-common and percona-server-common) should not be installed together on same system:

 

Summarizing:

  • By installing mysql-common on system where's percona is already installed will cause removal of percona-server package because it depends on percona-server-common, which can't be installed along with mysql-common

  • mysql-common comes as dependency for libdbd-perl-mysql if installed not from Percona Experimental repository

  • percona-toolkit depends on libdbd-perl-mysql
