[Trisquel-devel] [PATCH] Fix Update Manager freezes as a result of Trisquelization modifications

[Andrew 'Leny' Lindley]

The issue in question is https://trisquel.info/en/issues/12201

This is a bug caused by Trisquelization, the third sed subsitituion in
the command prececdng the code change in the context of this patch
nukes two Python %s subsitutions which causes exceptions to be
thrown and Update Manager hangs.  The user has to bypass/workaround by
using the command line.

The patch below is a port of a standard code diff patch suggested by
@kpengboy which has been used with success by a number of users in the
duplicate issue https://trisquel.info/en/issues/12270 . I have simply
ported the code change to package helper sed standard, built the
packages and test the resultant i386 & amd64 update-manager-core
packages on scratch 6.0.1 kvm guests. 

Of note is the failing code is not present in Belenos's Update Manager
so this is a Toutatis only fix.
