I spent a bit of time looking into this one, and I really have no idea.
I followed Brian's lead and restored the apt-clone file in comment #20,
which makes the bug reproduce.
I upgrade all the machine to all of xenial-{proposed,security,updates}
and it still reproduces. I updated desktop-file-utils and glib2.0 to
have *all* of their triggers be noawait, even the one which actually
needs to be await (schemas).

My final attempt was to make *all* file triggers noawait, by editing
/var/lib/dpkg/info/*.triggers and /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File. This also
failed, but maybe this isn't a good way to do cowboy that change.
What is this?
