[Bug 1942255] Re: FTBFS with Go 1.17

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package golang-github-urfave-cli -
1.22.4-2ubuntu1

---------------
golang-github-urfave-cli (1.22.4-2ubuntu1) impish; urgency=medium

  * Change "incorrect usage" test case to use an undefined flag rather
    than a syntactically invalid flag. This prevents panics in test cases,
    as Go 1.17 panics with invalid flag syntax (LP: #1942255)

Bug description:
  As of Go 1.17 the flag package will panic if given a syntactically
  invalid flag. See https://golang.org/doc/go1.17#flag for more detail.

  There is a test in this package that tries to test an invalid usage
  scenario by passing a syntactically invalid flag. This causes the
  build time test to panic, and the build fails.
