[Bug 1373441] Re: log files sometimes scramble test results and stderr

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package autopkgtest - 3.5.3

---------------
autopkgtest (3.5.3) unstable; urgency=medium


  * ssh-setup/adb: Use the new "phablet-config network" to save/restore wifi
    connections, which also works with non-root adb.
  * Give adt-run's tee processes some time to catch up between printing
    results and stderr, to avoid scrambled logs. (LP: #1373441)
  * Fix NullRunner.test_timeout_no_output for older Python versions.
  * tests/pyflakes: Skip test if pyflakes3 is not available (for backports).
  * Bump Standards version to 3.9.6 (no changes necessary).
  * NullRunner.test_timeout_no_output: Slightly relax time bound to make
    failures less likely on loaded/slow machines.
  * Install clicks with --allow-unauthenticated to support local developer
    generated packages. (LP: #1372640)

  I. e. the stdout/err merging into the log file is wrongly sorted.
