No problem. I was hoping this would explain.
With create-normal-user having the stderr output being redirect to stdout using '2>&1',the autopkgtest tool does now start executing tests.
Great.
None of that is particularly helpful and confusing at best. Filtering out known harmless error message will avoid users scratching their heads, wasting time on debugging and as such lead to better UX.
Agree. I'm a bit surprised it's printed, because I thought output to stdout at that level would already be ignored (as you can see in my comments in the merge request [1]). I'll think about the best solution (probably just 2> /dev/null) as I don't think we want to maintain a list of harmless messages to filter out.
