Package: autopkgtest
Version: 5.1
User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu

When autopkgtest 5.2 was recently rolled out to the Ubuntu infrastructure,
various package-manager-related test suites began to fail as a result of the
use of APT::Default-Release introduced in 5.1:

======================================================================
ERROR: test a sources.list file with unicode comments

  http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/u/ubuntu-release-upgrader/bionic/armhf

So far we've seen test failures from update-manager,
ubuntu-release-upgrader, and snapcraft - none of which are present in
Debian.  It possibly affects all consumers of python-apt (so may affect
python-apt itself, which is present in Debian).  Since python-apt
autopkgtests appear to be passing in Debian according to
<https://ci.debian.net/packages/p/python-apt/unstable/amd64/>, this may be
an Ubuntu-specific problem, or perhaps 5.1 is not yet rolled out to
ci.debian.net?

To unbreak Ubuntu I have reverted the changes from the merge of the pin-v2
branch in our production deployment.
