[Bug 1641905] Re: Minor unit Test regression in 1.2.15

[Julian Andres Klode]

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: New => In Progress

** Description changed:

  In 1.2.15 the unit tests (which run at build time) fail with an error
  message in the atomic files test, because I picked a commit that
  improved the error handling a bit (a previous error now propagates into
  further calls).
  
  I'll revert that for 1.2.16, as it depends on another fix, and I'm not
  sure I really want those two in there.
+ 
+ [Impact] 
+ * Causes unit test failure, but might not have real effects
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ * Check that build output (which runs unit tests) contains no failure
+ 
+ [Regression Potential] 
+ * None, we are just reverting a commit from 1.2.15, so we have the same as in 1.2.14
