[Bug 1541914] Re: passwd depends on init-system-helpers (>= 1.18~); however: Version of init-system-helpers on system is 1.14

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package upstart - 1.13.2-0ubuntu21

---------------
upstart (1.13.2-0ubuntu21) xenial; urgency=medium

  * init/tests/test_job_process.c: Relax assertion about output format of
    "dd", as it changed recently. Fixes test failure and FTBFS.
  * init/tests/test_job_process.c: Disable "exited with signal" check in "with
    single-line script that is killed" test, as this is racy: it is possible
    that a short lived process exits faster than we manage to kill it. This
    will enable us to un-ignore autopkgtests again.
