Bug Description

As can be see on [1] autopackage tests for plainbox currently fail because of impossible dependency situation.
The dependencies for the 'unit-tests' test are defined as '@' which expands to all of the binary plainbox packages. This includes both of the conflicting policy pacakges.

The dependencies should be corrected in the upstream debian packaging and tested downstream here, in Ubuntu, before Debian has the corresponding infrastructure available.

I've fixed this in Debian SVN. I must say that auto-package-testing is so unsuitable for development that I cannot really be sure that it really works unless it hits the archive. I plan to open a bug on that because it's pretty much a useless tool unless each developer invests heavily into getting to know how to set it up / hakcs on it / reads the source to get a basic development loop working. Very frustrating experience :-/
