Bug description:
  Rebuilding apport in mantic today FTBFS because of a pylint complaint.
  We discussed this in #ubuntu-devel today. I don't think that failing
  the build on a lint failure is appropriate in distribution packaging
  in a production build since otherwise the build regresses for no good
  reason. Linting should be done during development but not enabled in
  production archive builds.

  This can be fixed by dropping the lint tests from
  override_dh_auto_test in debian/rules.
