Solution
What happened was that when installing and configuring Magnolia first time you have most likely took one existing node and renamed it to something else. In the case shown above it was the editor role (installed with samples module) that was renamed to something else.
Possible solutions are to:
- either look what is the current name of given node (using query like select * from nt:base where jcr:uuid='adddfaa5-0f00-4a01-9664-ed5cfd0fdd0f'
...
- to
...
- find
...
- the
...
- node
...
- by
...
- its
...
- UUID)
...
- and
...
- then
...
- delete
...
- this
...
- node
...
- before
...
- performing
...
- upgrade.

- don't

- your

- instance,

- you

...
- if

- upgrading
...

...
- is
