Bug Description

tests/integration/test_packaging_apt_dpkg.py::test_get_file_package_diversion fails if it doesn't detect any dpkg diversions. Apparently something (possibly dash?) stopped diverting something, so now there are no diversions in the autopkgtest environment and therefore this test fails.

One option is to add something that does divert something, eg. vim, to the test dependencies. This fixes the issue for now, but isn't really a permanent solution.

The integration test should be skipped in case there is no diversion: https://github.com/canonical/apport/pull/214

For Ubuntu, we should pull in something with diversion to have this test do something useful.
