Public bug reported: [Impact] A xenial autopackagetest, test_backend_apt_dpkg.py, for apport is failing because they try and get data from ddebs.ubuntu.com for an End of Life release.
[Test Case] 1) Observe the autopkgtest failure "SystemError: W:The repository 'http://ddebs.ubuntu.com wily Release' does not have a Release file., W:Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use., W:See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details., E:Failed to fetch http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/wily/main/binary-armhf/Packages 404 Not Found, E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead." With the version of apport in -proposed their will not be an autopkgtest failure. [Regression Potential] We are switching to the version of the autopkgtest which is currently working in apport and has been working since yakkety's development. Additionally, its just a test change so there should be no regressions.
