This patch will be replaced when merging anything >= 8.0.20, thus the
closer date.

Nice thought, didn't occur to me!

Looks like some builds are still failing for security tests, with the
uploaded patch:

https://pastebin.canonical.com/p/RZc57ZpVPq/

Running with "nocheck" still runs upstream build tests.

Following PPA contained code from the merge request:

https://launchpad.net/~rafaeldtinoco/+archive/ubuntu/lp1859100/+packages

and all tests passed :\.

I haven't changed the 20200101000000 entries as they were issuing
other errors - then date - on purpose and the return code type was
being checked (had some issues when changed them all). So I guess some
tests might fail randomly unless LP builders are not running the tests
at all.

I'll recheck.
