Title:
  python-ruffus kills LXC worker on ppc64el

Status in Auto Package Testing:
  Fix Released
Status in autopkgtest package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  python-ruffus' tests create some kind of python fork bomb in ppc64el's
  LXC worker, which triggers the OOM killer.

  We need to find a way for the spawned LXC container to be the first
  OOM victim, instead of killing the worker python process.
