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

[Julian Andres Klode]

The issue is:

/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/test/libapt/fileutl_test.cc:376: Failure
Value of: f.Close()
  Actual: false
Expected: true

Note that the test suite is not guaranteed to run during the build -
there are dependency tracking issues in the build system, causing it to
not build sometimes. But where it builds, this error should be gone.

** 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).

+ 
+ /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/test/libapt/fileutl_test.cc:376: Failure
+ Value of: f.Close()
+   Actual: false
+ Expected: true
  
  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.
