** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * Upgrade from Bionic to Focal may break
+  * The upload really forces 
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ $ lxc launch ubuntu:bionic bb-glibc-upgrade
+ $ lxc shell bb-glibc-upgrade 
+ # export LDCONFIG_TRIGGER_DEBUG=1
+ #  apt update -qq && apt upgrade -qq -y && do-release-upgrade -d
  ...
- if [ -n "$preversion" ] && dpkg --compare-versions "$preversion" lt 
2.31-0ubuntu2; then
-       LCONFIG_NOTRIGGER=y
+ 
+ With the broken version the following message can be observed:
+ ..
+ Preparing to unpack .../libc6_2.31-0ubuntu9_amd64.deb ...
+ 
+ Progress: [ 38%]
+ ldconfig: wrapper deferring update (trigger activated)
+ ...
+ 
+ The fixed version runs ldconfig immediately after unpacking libc6.
+ 
+ 
+ [Regression Potential] 
+ 
+ * Very small, the fix is literally adding one single character to
+ properly set LDCONFIG_NOTRIGGER.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
