(this happened twice in Santiago's log, once in
ArchiverTestCase::test_extract_capabilities and once in

This might be fakeroot bug https://bugs.debian.org/1138512 ? If so, it
is hopefully fixed in current unstable by 2.1.1-1.

All of these except for the two test_extract_capabilities are #1140857,
and seem to share the same logging-related root cause. I provided a
