• Bug#1105977: debci: apt-listbugs tests fail due to "stderr: auto-apt-pr

    Hello Debian CI team.

    I haven't uploaded any new version of package 'apt-listbugs' since last
    March. The continuous intergration autopkgtests succeeded, after
    bug [#1099017] was fixed.

    [#1099017]: <https://bugs.debian.org/1099017>

    But now the tests are failing again on many architectures, for instance
    on [amd64].

    [amd64]: <https://ci.debian.net/packages/a/apt-listbugs/testing/amd64/60679833/>

    The reason seems to be that auto-apt-proxy (which is not a dependency of apt-listbugs) is installed in the testbed and tends to be a bit
    talkative on stderr:

    FAIL stderr: auto-apt-proxy: INFO: looking for available APT cache
    FAIL stderr: auto-apt-proxy: INFO: using cache: no proxy detected (ttl = 51s)
    FAIL stderr: auto-apt-proxy: INFO: using cache: no proxy detected (ttl = 42s)

    Please configure the testbeds so that auto-apt-proxy avoids printing
    info or debug messages on stderr, if this is possible.
    Otherwise, please re-assign this bug report to package
    'auto-apt-proxy'.

    Thanks for your time!
