[Bug 1781586] Re: Skip rebuilding python-apt in upgrade autopkgtests

[Brian Murray]

Hello Balint, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unattended-upgrades into bionic-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/unattended-upgrades/1.1ubuntu1.18.04.6 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)

Title:
  Skip rebuilding python-apt in upgrade autopkgtests

Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in unattended-upgrades source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Python-apt has a new build dependency making the rebuilding as is
  failing and the reference handling issue is worked around in
  unattended-upgrades already.

   * Table updates of python-apt may make u-u autopkgtest fail without
  the u-u package having any problem when it is installed.

  
  [Test Case]

   * Check upgrade-all-security autopkgtest output, it should not
  rebuild the python-apt package.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Autopkgtest may fail due running it with not rebuilt python-apt.
  This problem can be caught easily when testing the package.
