Title:
  pylint-common test/test_func.py uses code no longer in latest pylint

Status in pylint-common package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The pylint package has been updated to 1.7.2 in artful-proposed, and
  that includes updates to its test/test_func.py code. However, pylint-
  common has copied some of the code from pylint/test/test_func.py which
  uses pylint internals, and those are removed/replaced from pylint
  1.7.2. This results in pylint-common autopkgtests failing when using
  the artful-proposed pylint code. The test/test_func.py must be updated
  for the new pylint test code.
