Public bug reported:

This is the result of a well-known - wrong - behaviour.

It happened to me with the upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04. Google gives plenty of 
help, unambiguously.

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1060917/from-swap-partition-to-swap-file-now-get-no-matching-swap-devide-is-available
and many more. 

However, I couldn't find a bug report for it. It struck me at the upgrade from 
kubuntu 16.04 to 18.04. I have now done what was suggested elsewhere. Yet, I 
could not find a real explanation nor a bug report. In my case, like in many of 
those, the UUID for resume was kind of 'out of the blue'. And once changed to 
the real UUID for the swap device, everything is fine. 
However, I am not happy with a situation like that. Many a user that we tried 
over the last 20 years to adopt Linux as main OS will not want to search Google 
for this bug, and will not want to vi (or similar) some system file.
Therefore I take the liberty to report this. From the dates of the posts, it 
seems that this bug has been lingering for quite some time, Wouldn't it be the 
right moment to prevent it from striking again?
