apport checks for a bug pattern before filing a bug report, in the case
of the bug which you were reporting it matched the bug pattern for bug
996916. That pattern looks like:
<pattern url="https://launchpad.net/bugs/996916";>
<re key="Package">^(ubuntu-release-upgrader-core |update-manager)</re>
<re key="VarLogDistupgradeMainlog">blacklist expr
'\^postgresql-.*\[0-9\]\\.\[0-9\].*' matches</re>
</pattern>
>From the bugs I'd seen before most of them failed to calculate the
upgrade, however in your log file (Mainlog.txt) the message appears
during the obsolete package check.

The bug pattern should be modified so that it only matches bugs where
the message appears before upgrading.
