[Bug 1779223] [NEW] Enabling trusty/mitaka cloud archive on MAAS 1.9.x hosts causes dist-upgrade to remove MAAS packages

[Drew Freiberger]

Public bug reported:

On our MAAS nodes for Openstack support, we add the appropriate Ubuntu
cloud archive in order to keep the python-openstackclient/python-
heatclient/etc tools up-to-date.  However, when we perform a dist-
upgrade, we see it trying to uninstall the following packages:

  maas maas-dns maas-region-controller maas-region-controller-min

We believe this is possibly interrelated with our bootstack-ops PPA
package which requires python-django which is newer than the version
available in trusty-updates.

Here's apt-get -s dist-upgrade info with UCA source enabled:
https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/3fMxDZGw9d/

Here's apt-get -s dist-upgrade with UCA disabled:
https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/w29NvRFSV7/
