You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
bind9-host : Depends: libbind9-160 (= 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1.1) but 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1 is installed
Depends: libdns1100 (= 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1.1) but 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1 is installed

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
So some issue with bind9 depending on version 1.1 but I have 1.0 installed. So I try fix-broken:

One option: I renamed the trigger file in question (so it wouldn't be found by dpkg). I then re-ran upgrade, auto-remove etc.
This seems to have worked, in the sense that I could proceed with upgrades. However I would still like to know what my trigger file is supposed to look like and how/if I can restore it in some ways...

Verify that you have still security.ubuntu.com rows in your sources.list
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security main restricted
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security universe
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security multiverse
bind9 has security update at 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1.1 but only available through security.ubuntu.com . I found out mine repositories were disabled by one script or another.

Verify that you have still security.ubuntu.com rows in your sources.list
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security main restricted
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security universe
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security multiverse
bind9 has security update at 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1.1 but only available through security.ubuntu.com . I found out mine repositories were disabled by one script or another.

That looks more like a filelist file (maybe
/var/lib/dpkg/info/desktop-file-utils.list?) than a triggers file - did the original file get overwritten perhaps?– steeldriver

The one you mentioned has similar content indeed, but only a few entries. What does a trigger file is supposed to look like? Could I restore it to some default template?
