Summary:
of [1] "upgrading" we can not prevent "1.2-3->prerm upgrade 1.2-4" to fail.
But we can make the fallback of "1.2-4-prerm failed-upgrade 1.2-3" working

dropped in the next release
Thanks for the data Matthieu!

you then.

Hi Christian,
Thank you for the prompt answer. I thought it was different from bug
1905377 because the last version was supposed to fix the same issue.
