[Bug 1065873] Re: crashes in chroot with no HOME set

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package autopkgtest - 2.3

---------------
autopkgtest (2.3) unstable; urgency=low


  * runner/adt-run.1: Fix bad "affect modify" wording. (LP: #1199500)
  * Drop hosts/chinstrap. We haven't actually used this in many years, it has
    been replaced with https://launchpad.net/auto-package-testing, Jenkins,
    and blocking migration to release until tests pass. (LP: #381210)
  * Promote apt-utils from Recommends to Depends:, to avoid test failures due
    to not finding apt-ftparchive. (LP: #1065874)
  * Promote pbuilder from Recommends: to Depends:, as we always call
    pbuilder-satisfydepends-classic. (LP: #1065874)
  * runner/adt-run: Stop explicitly checking for $HOME (with broken error
    message) when giving --gnupg-home, use os.path.expanduser() instead.
    (LP: #1065873)
  * runner/adt-run: Fix timeout --help output.
  * runner/adt-run: Fix bomb() to clean up the testbed before removing it.
    Afterwards (in cleanup()) we don't have a testbed object any more to run
    commands in. (LP: #1157292)
  * runner/adt-run: Fix UnicodeDecodeError crash if stderr contains non-ASCII
    characters. (LP: #1100283)
  * Add "allow-stderr" restriction for tests where re-routing or disabling
    stderr is impractical. (LP: #1197005)
  * runner-adt-run: Support architecture specifiers in Depends: field.
    (LP: #1165128)
  * runner/adt-run: Remove/fix some unused variables, spotted by pyflakes.
