86. By Iain Lane

Put ubuntu-wallpapers (the package) in Section: metapackages as
dependencies of packages in this section are considered "manual" by apt
and therefore will not be removed on upgrades. This means that users
will keep wallpapers from old releases when upgrading. Thanks to James
Westby for pointing this out to me. (LP: #863509)

I pushed another commit to hopefully fix bug #863509 by using the fact that "metapackages" is in apt's Never-MarkAuto-Sections.
