[Bug 1735160] Re: [SRU] Please backport python3-macaroonbakery 0.0.6-1 [universe] from bionic

[Robie Basak]

> The problem is that if you upgrade from Xenial to Zesty or (soon)
Artful and we haven't SRUed the fixes then users could either become
unfixed or in some cases (didn't check / don't remember for this bug)
package versions might go backwards.

Worse, a user may not receive future security updates for the package in
Artful.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  As part of allowing Ubuntu users to enable canonical-livepatch from software-properties GUI (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#Update_settings) we need to backport python3-macaroonbakery 0.0.6-1 [universe] from bionic. This will requires quite few changes:

  - backport httmock 1.2.6-1 [universe] from bionic - no httmock in xenial
  - backport pymacaroons 0.12.0-1 [universe] from bionic - xenial has 0.9.2-0ubuntu1
  - SRU some changes in google-apputils-python - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/google-apputils-python/+bug/1735162
  - add python3-protobuf to python-protobuf 2.6.1-1.3 - Right now the python3 package is not built.

  [Test case]
  - for protobuf: $ python3 -c "import google.protobuf"
  - for protobuf: $ python2 -c "import google.protobuf"
  - for python3-macaroonbakery: make sure all the tests pass
  - make sure "snapcraft login" works properly

  [Regression Potential]
  - httmock, none has it's not in xenial
  - protobuf, reduced considering that the code has been backported from master (small changes to make it compatabile py3 compatabile)
  - pymacaroons, none has 0.12 is backward compatible with 0.9.2
  - py-macaroon-bakery, none has it's not in xenial.
