Hi, The first patch applies with very minor and trivial refresh for fuzz to 20.11, and fixes the issue for me - the fast suite can now run without privileges in autopkgtest. I'd like to have this included for 21.05 so that we can fix the tests. So: Tested-by: Luca Boccassi <bl...@debian.org> -- Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
