On an Ubuntu 14.04 system I edited my sources.list file to have -proposed enabled and modified all trusty entries to xenial. After which I ran 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' and successfully upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04 with -proposed enabled and the new version of cracklib-runtime being installed.

This is making distribution upgrades challenging. [Test Case] While we haven't been able to replicate this directly the following tests will confirm that there are no regressions. Test A ------ 1) Install cracklib-runtime from -proposed. 2) Reinstall dictionaries-common and verify that the trigger is called Test B ------ 1) With the version of cracklib-runtime from -proposed installed, confirm that a distribution upgrade to next supported release succeeds. Test C ------ 1) Test a release upgrade from an affected release (Trusty, Xenial) to the next supported release (Xenial, Zesty) with -proposed enabled. To do this upgrade you'll need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list to the target release and run 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' as ubuntu-release-upgrader will disable -proposed. [Regression Potential] It's possible that upgrades will break hence all the regression tests in the Test Case. Original Description -------------------- This seems to be the same problem as described in bug #1636262, only this time it happened during upgrade from 16.10 to 17.04. The setup process (do-release-upgrade -d) aborted and I had to finish it manually.
