Werk #19411 changed the format of the global setting "Use new service names" (use_new_descriptions_for) from a list of plugins to a per-plugin mapping.
In a distributed setup where the central site has a version not containing the werk and a remote site has, the old format is synced to the remote site, leading to the error
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'get'
during the activation of changes. This error occurs only when the versions differ in the patch level, not between a 2.4 and 2.5.
With this werk the both formats are supported.
