  [ Michael Terry ]
  * Drop Unity-support gir Recommends down to Suggests. LP: #1029764

  [ sampo555 ]
  * lp:~sampo555/update-manager/fix-for-1031280:
    - Convert SystemError into string in order to avoid TypeError in
      UpdateManager.refresh_cache SystemError handles. Fixes LP: #1031280

  [ Robert Park ]
  * Allow test suite to not need to be run as root

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * lp:~mvo/update-manager/phased-updates:
    - Implement the client part of the "foundations-q-phased-updates".
      This allows to deploy updates in phases where only a subset of
      the users will get a update, controlled via the
      Phased-Updates-Percentage tag in the Packages file.
