bug#20817: 25.0.50; Problems with upgrading of packages

[Artur Malabarba]

Hm, that's pretty strange. There are two lines between the call to
package-install and the call to package-compute-transaction that look
like they shouldn't be there (at least, AFAICS).
Do you have an advice on any of these functions?
