This kind of thing (lots of annoying post-install fix-ups) is why I
gave up doing upgrades, many years ago.
I have done probably over a hundred upgrades of systems without problems
and no post-install fixups.
I do fresh installs, where the only thing I know I have to do is
configure the services I want to run. It's far less mental gymnastics
of trying to figure out what got mangled, and takes me less time to do.
A fresh install would cause me so much trouble. I have installed
packages and settings over time and I would hate to have to redo all
that each time, after figuring out what I've done in the first place.
