autopkgtest 2.4 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

autopkgtest (2.4) unstable; urgency=low


  * Add adt-virt-lxc test runner, many thanks to Robie Basak for this! This
    runner provides "revert" and "revert-full-system" capabilities which is
    useful for packages which have the "breaks-testbed" restriction and
    multiple tests. For the time being this only works with the ubuntu-cloud
    template; support for general debian/ubuntu containers requires an
    lxc-wait mechanism ("did the container finish booting?") and getting along
    with the different user setups (debian using "root",  ubuntu using an
    "ubuntu" user with sudo capabilities).
  * Add tests for adt-virt-lxc.
  * Code cleanup to slightly improve readability:
    - Drop two-letter aliases for methods.
    - Consistent usage of quotes.
    - Drop orphaned/unnecessary globals.
    - Consistent logging methods/object names, add some docstrings.
  * Install fakeroot into testbed for "build-needed". Thanks Jean-Baptiste
    Lallement! (Closes: #726714, LP: #1241456)
  * Create testtmp directory with 0755 permissions to fix failure with tight
    umasks. Thanks Arthur de Jong! (Closes: #728057)
  * Allow test control Depends: to have a trailing comma. Thanks Jean-Baptiste
    Lallement for the patch!
  * Make test stdout re-appear in --log-file file for realtime output.

Binary packages built by this source

autopkgtest: automatic as-installed testing for Debian packages

 autopkgtest runs tests on binary packages. The tests are run on the
 package as installed on a testbed system (which may be found via a
 virtualisation or containment system). The tests are expected to be
 supplied in the corresponding Debian source package.
 .
 See autopkgtest(1) and /usr/share/doc/autopkgtest.
 Depending on which virtualization server you want to use, you need to
 install additional packages (schroot, lxc, lxd, or qemu-system)
 .
 For generating tests of well-known source packages such as Perl and Ruby
 libraries you should install the autodep8 package.

autopkgtest-xenlvm: autopkgtest Xen/LVM2 based testbed snapshot system

 Machinery for setting up a Xen domain which can be resumed over and
 over again, discarding changes made each time. This can be useful
 for automated testing and other advanced techniques; autopkgtest is
 able to make use of this machinery for its virtualisation needs.
 .
 You will need a working Xen setup to make use of this software. Your
 network administrator will need to provide support for the testbeds'
 networking requirements. See the README for documentation.
