(not yet merged) fixes the issue.

** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+ Quite a few bugs in triggers can cause distro upgrades to abort.
+
+ [Test case]
+ For cosmic -> disco, install ubuntu-mate-desktop and then upgrade.
+
+ For other releases, there might not be any test cases
+
+ [Regression potential]
+ New trigger bugs could of course be caused by the changes.
+
+ [Original bug report]
+
