Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Breaks some upgrades, depending on install order.

  [Test case]
  N/A. After consultation with the dpkg maintainer and investigating the situation, it's reasonably safe to assume that noawait is the right thing to do:

  * the intended use for the trigger is to run _after_ packages with .menu 
  files are configured, not before; therefore
  * the file trigger is triggered manually from the postinst again, discussion has been that the file trigger is not actually needed.

  [Regression potential]
  Menu might not be updated correctly
