[Bug 1815948] Re: Upgrade from rocky python2->python3 packages breaks openstack_dashboard alternative

[Corey Bryant]

** Description changed:

  After upgrading from queens->rocky with the openstack charms, /usr/share
  /openstack-dashboard/openstack_dashboard is missing files because it is
  not a symlink (alternative) to /usr/lib/python3/dist-
  packages/openstack_dashboard.
  
  Note that the openstack charms are using py2 packages in queens and py3
  packages in rocky. The upgrade process of the packages goes:
  
  (1) py2queens -> (2) py2rocky -> (3) py3rocky
  
  Bad state after upgrade: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3GnMTVfZDk/
  
  Also worth noting that the queens packages did not use alternatives for
  /usr/share/openstack-dashboard/openstack_dashboard. In that version of
  the package the files are copied into /usr/share/openstack-
  dashboard/openstack_dashboard during the package build so there are no
  symlinks/alternatives involved.
  
  Looking closer during the upgrade, at step (2) we have:
