For example it was found and fixed that the minimum size of Ubuntu Images was too small (bug 1796037). Now if somebody did not have these issues his 16.04 guest default size will still change. But since it fixes issues it is a change we want. Most people specify RAM explicitly anyway as in non API use cases it is mandatory. In a similar way, this contains many data updates and if any of them might be wrong there might be issues. I read through the updates and they all looked sane to me, but in terms of regression potential this is the biggest potential threat to me.

[Other Info]  * This package is mostly a data-carrier, it has not much active code Therefore it was safe and much less error prone to suggest pushing the cosmic/disco version to Bionic as-is instead of trying to remove the few packaging changes that happened to "only push the new data". @SRU-team: Let me know if this is a problem in your opinion.
