[Bug 1417966] [NEW] adt-run does not work with autopilot on emulator

[Richard Huddie]

Public bug reported:


When trying to run autopilot tests (lp:ubuntu-sanity-tests) on the ubuntu emulator, the test fails with the following error. If the autopilot tests are installed and run directly on the emulator, they will work ok. This problem only happens when trying to use adt-run:

Traceback (most recent call last):
