Bug Description
When doing a distro-upgrade from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 shared-mime-info broke the whole process throwing errors about libicu60, which was installed as new in the upgrade process. While the system was broken, I forced a reinstall of libicu60 (apt install --reinstall libicu60) which then allowed shared-mime-info to be installable.
As this interrupted the distro upgrade process, I have rolled back to a backup before the upgrade took place, so this system is not in the same state as when the issue happened. I am not able to provide further debug assistance here.
I've performed many upgrades from 16.04 to 18.04 and have only seen this issue happen once so far.
