[Bug 1646544] Re: adt-run in zesty fails

[Martin Pitt]

I can reproduce this with

$ runner/autopkgtest -B /tmp/ubuntu-system-tests --setup-commands ro-apt
-- qemu /srv/vm/autopkgtest-trusty-amd64.img

This works in xenial, so apparently a more recent autopkgtest started
using some dpkg feature that got introduced after vivid.

This also works without the "ro-apt" bit, i. e. when using "regular" apt
instead of the "unpack into /tmp dir" mode.

It's not specific to ubuntu-system-tests, the same also happens with an
apt-get source'd gzip-1.6/  tree.
