** Description changed:

+ [SRU Justification]
+ Targeted fix for a regression introduced in the previous SRU; the 
'lsb_release' python module is now unavailable in python 2, where it was 
available before the SRU.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Install lsb-release from xenial-updates.
+ 2. Run "python -c 'import lsb_release'".
+ 3. Verify that the command fails with an error.
+ 4. Install lsb-release from xenial-proposed.
+ 5. Run "python -c 'import lsb_release'".
+ 6. Verify that the command succeeds (silently).
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ Minimal; this restores the python module to the state it was prior to the 
latest SRU.  A debdiff of the binary packages should show no other changes.
+ 
  python2 cannot import lsb_release on yakkety. `locate` shows "lsb-
  release" installed several files, but
  
-     /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/lsb_release.py
+     /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/lsb_release.py
  
  is missing from disk. This was seen on an aws instance provisioned using
  the 20160526 daily image.
