This bug was fixed in the package apt - 1.6.13
---------------
apt (1.6.13) bionic; urgency=medium
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* Fix incorrect base64 encoding due to int promotion (LP: #1916050)
* Harden test for no new acquires after transaction abort (Closes: #984966)
(LP: #1918920)
[ Julian Andres Klode ]
* Implement update --error-on=any (Closes: #594813) (LP: #1693900)
* Include all translations when building the cache (LP: #1907850)
* Add basic support for the Protected field
* Do not require force-loopbreak on Important packages
(Closes: #983014) (LP: #1916725)
* Protect currently running kernel at run-time (LP: #1615381)
* Make ADDARG{,C}() macros expand to single statements
* Improve immediate configuration handling (LP: #1871268)
- Do not immediately configure m-a: same packages in lockstep
- Ignore failures from immediate configuration. This does not change the
actual installation ordering - we never passed the return code to the
caller and installation went underway anyway if it could be ordered at a
later stage, this just removes spurious after-the-fact errors.
(Closes: #973305, #188161, #211075, #649588)

Default Acquire::AllowReleaseInfoChange::Suite to "true"

Bug description:
[Impact]
APT 1.6-2.0 deny third-party repositories from changing their Suite value.
This change was reverted in later apt releases, and will be reverted in 1.8 in
Debian as well, so for consistency, we want to push that change to stable
[Test plan]
We added test cases to our extensive integration test suite run by
autopkgtest.
[Where problems could occur]
It's hard to imagine anything here, we simply turn the flag for allowed from
false to true. We even add tests for Suite changes :)
