apt 1.2.29 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

apt (1.2.29) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Set DPKG_FRONTEND_LOCKED when running {pre,post}-invoke scripts.
    Some post-invoke scripts install packages, which fails because
    the environment variable is not set. This sets the variable for
    all three kinds of scripts {pre,post-}invoke and pre-install-pkgs,
    but we will only allow post-invoke at a later time.
    (LP: #1796808)

  * Set DPKG_FRONTEND_LOCKED as needed when doing selection changes
