Packages were updated in prep for 0.47 RC phase.

So if you are waiting for a working nightly, just wait another day for a build to trigger and it should resolve itself.

For openmw 0.46 you'll need to unininstall mysql; apt update; then apt install mysql again.

libmygui.openglplatform0debian1v5
libmyguiengine3debian1v5

and anything else mygui related:

apt search mygui | grep installed

But that's only necessary for those running 0.46

0.47 fixes itself
