[Bug 1827307] [NEW] Certain files not installed, can't do full upgrade to next ubuntu edition.

[Ron de Vries]

Public bug reported:

Using ubuntu 18.04, i had a message that ubuntu 18.10 is available, so i
upgraded, but some files or apps were not installed so it only did a
partial upgrade. Today i turned on my laptop, i then received a message
that ubuntu 19.04 was available, so i accepted to do another upgrade,
but this one failed to even do a partial upgrade.

files/Apps that say is an issue are as follows:

qmail-uids-gids
qmail
qmail-run
mailutils

other files had 'invalid file name'
Can't recall what they were.

Hope this helps.
