[Test Case] 1. Install lsb-release from xenial-updates. 2. Run "python -c 'import lsb_release'". 3. Verify that the command fails with an error. 4. Install lsb-release from xenial-proposed. 5. Run "python -c 'import lsb_release'". 6. Verify that the command succeeds (silently). [Regression potential] Minimal; this restores the python module to the state it was prior to the latest SRU. A debdiff of the binary packages should show no other changes. python2 cannot import lsb_release on yakkety. `locate` shows "lsb- release" installed several files, but /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/lsb_release.py is missing from disk. This was seen on an aws instance provisioned using the 20160526 daily image.
