Title:
  Minor unit Test regression in 1.2.15

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in apt source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In 1.2.15 the unit tests (which run at build time) fail with an error
  message in the atomic files test, because I picked a commit that
  improved the error handling a bit (a previous error now propagates
  into further calls):

  /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/test/libapt/fileutl_test.cc:376: Failure
  Value of: f.Close()
    Actual: false
  Expected: true

  I'll revert that for 1.2.16, as it depends on another fix, and I'm not
  sure I really want those two in there.

  [Impact]
  * Causes unit test failure, but might not have real effects

  [Test Case]
  * Check that build output (which runs unit tests) contains no failure

  [Regression Potential]
  * None, we are just reverting a commit from 1.2.15, so we have the same as in 1.2.14
