It could be that Debian won't need this change. Looks like all the triggers are now processed near the end of upgrade, due to changes in dpkg itself.
Possibly related entry from dpkg 1.19.3 changelog: * dpkg: Introduce a new dependency try level for trigger processing. This completely defers trigger processing until after the dependency cycle breaking level, so to avoid generating artificial trigger cycles, when we end up trying to process triggers with yet unsatisifiable dependencies. Closes: #810724, #854478, #911620 https://bugs.debian.org/810724 And from dpkg 1.19.7 changelog: * dpkg: Split the trigger dependtry into two, the second of which will be the one checking trigger cycles when deferring trigger processing due to unsatisfiable dependencies.
