[Bug 1945969] Re: Update to 0.52.6 in impish

[Lukas Märdian]

This is a FTBFS fix for libunity that could become an impish 0-day SRU.

PPA pre-testing has been done here:

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * libunity FTBFS using valac 0.52.6, which makes it hard to apply any
+ (security) updates in a timely manner.
+ 
+ [Test Plan]
+ 
+  * Check the Launchpad build logs to make sure that libunity
+ 7.1.4+19.04.20190319-6 built successfully
+  * Attach build logs to this bug
+ 
+ [Where problems could occur]
+ 
+  * The build could still fail for some reason and we would be back to
+ status quo.
