[Bug 1817088] [NEW] (silent) testsuite failure in test-apt-progress-fd-errror

[Julian Andres Klode]

Public bug reported:

[Impact]
test-apt-progress-fd-error is failing on trusty due to a space difference, but the failure is not causing the tests to fail.

[Test case]
The fix fixes the test case and rewrites it to also detect failure. We can however, only detect success in the testsuite, as we do not have a testsuite testsuite :)

[Regression potential]
If something is wrong with the change, it could cause the tests to fail even though they are good.
