Bug Description
[Impact]
* A recent Security pushed CVE containing Postgres upload modified the
output of a few commands (good for safety, bad for tests checking exact
output).
* We want to get the tests working and reliable again and for this
package that change seems rather easy to do, so lets do it.
[Test Case]
* Run the autopkgtests of skytools3 against current Xenial/Artful
* You can just drop the file as the patch does and the tests will work
again.
[Regression Potential]
* This is a Test-Only change and currently Tests are totally broken on
all arches. So the only regression potential I see is a silly mistake
we might have missed in our Patch, but it is rather small and I doubt
there is one affecting the packages function.
[Other Info]
* Short Term the mark the current version as badtest (This also helps to
not let too much uploads depend to unblock on each other)
* Mid Term we want the tests to work, therefore this non-functional test
only Upload proposed here (If we don't do that we end up with no tests
after a while).
---
Past security releases changed the output of postgres.
Due to that autopkgtests are broken currently.
This should be safe to adapt and due to the CVE push not gating on it in the past is already a fact.
So lets mask the current version a badtest and work on the fix if there is time.
