Title:
  custom session DBUS

Status in “autopilot” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  previously ubiquity started "private" dbus session bus as root user,
  then launch ubiquity on it and then the tests would source / set that
  bus as environment variable before gaining the application proxy.

  there seems to be now a way to pass custom dbus address, and that
  functionality seems to interfere with our hacks.

  please either help to port lp:ubiquity autopilot tests to this new
  way, or adjust autopilot to honour environment variables and not trump
  them.

  example fail:
