Easiest way to do this is to install the Synaptic Package manager, it somehow is better at solving dependencies issues and I was able to sort it out using Synaptic. The Ubuntu Software Center does not seem to be handle this well.

First, you check where dpkg --get-selections is getting it's raw data from. If you suspect it's getting the data from /var, then you can further narrow down the results with a grep. Like this:
strace dpkg --get-selections 2>&1 | grep /var
That will produce the following result:
open("/var/lib/dpkg/updates/", ...

The warning/errors don't actually seem to have anything to do with the fact that you're installing them into a usr/share/<project>/node_modules directory. AFAICT, you'd be generating them wherever you install them.
As the docs mention, Lintian warning/errors can be overridden to silence them. Create a file called <package>.lintian-overrides in ...

There are two stages for apt, downloading files and installing them. If the system is working it means that apt was still downloading. So you can remove the lock file and do update again followed by upgrade. If the system is broken (which you did not state and I assume is not the case) then that is different story altogether.
So Just do
sudo rm -fv ...

Ok, I looked around some more and found a solution: It is in this post:
Unable to install any updates through update manager/apt-get upgrade
There is a link in the answer to this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1232143.html

Here is another approach compared to empi89 's answer, using a modified mysql init script. Yes this is manual, but this is the price you pay to be on the bleeding edge. Oracle does not provide a repository.
Have a look at this post.
EDIT: In brief, you can copy the original /etc/init.d/mysql to /etc/init.d/mysql-opt and modify it as appropriate:

Modify - It means you or a script edited a configuration file. For example, if you install mysql server and then you go and edit the /etc/myql/my.cnf file. The next time you do an upgrade and this upgrade includes mysql, when the mysql package starts to install it will detect you modified the my.cnf, so this message you got will appear. The change can be as ...

Not reproducible in Raring with a 1.509.x build after installing default-jdk. Not sure whether the difference is installing the full JDK; or a package metadata difference in the JDK for Raring; or a package metadata difference in Jenkins (I do not think so); or a bug fix to apt-get in Raring.

The files are in the libfl-dev package, which is a dependency of flex. The package is Multi-Arch enabled, so the files are under the /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ or /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ directory, depending on whether you are on 32 or 64 bit. Or possibly under /usr/lib/armhf-linux-gnu/ if you are on ARM.

I think I figured it out myself. apt does not check authentication on individual packages but only on the Release files.
