   This is an interesting one. The user is upgrading from xenial to bionic.
   xenial has python 3.5, bionic has python 3.6.
   During the postinst (included by dh_python), sosreport runs a python script
   containing an f-string. However f-strings were only introduced in python
   3.6. In this case, the postinst ran with python 3.5, which results in a
   syntax error when the f-string is parsed.
   While this could be fixed by having sosreport in bionic to depend on python
   >= 3.6, bionic has reached its EOSS. So, should this be a WONTFIX?
   I added a server-triage-discuss tag to this one.

There were no discourse comments needing attention.
