Bug Description
On Ubuntu xenial, run_tests.sh fails because of an ERROR of the 'test against removed package'
in 'tests/
This comes from a dependency change of xenial 'cowsay' package that is used in the test above.
That is, now cowsay has a reverse dependency from 'cowsay-off', and it makes package removal to fail.
Please see the attached terminal log.
I would suggest to change the package from 'cowsay' to 'dvorak7min'
because dvorak17min is enough small (around 20KB) and it would be stable
(not likely to have dependency changes in future).
If it makes sense, I will work on this.
