It's not all that surprising that whoopsie interferes with the test
suite. The test suite assumes that new reports stay "unseen" and
unprocessed, but whoopsie does process the reports. Also, it seems that
whoopsie-upload-all itself crashes sometimes. Also, apport-noui.service
is missing Type=oneshot.
We don't have tests for whoopsie and apport-noui, thus I'll just drop
that from the test dependencies and restore the "whoopsie" dependency.

Title:
running whoopsie during tests causes test failures
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
I've switched the apport-noui.path systemd file from:
PathChanged=/var/crash
to
PathExistsGlob=/var/crash/*.crash
I've done this because with PathChanged it seemed to me that the
whoopsie-upload-all, called by apport-noui.service, would be called
when any file (e.g. .upload, .uploaded) were created in /var/crash.
Naturally, this seemed excessive to me and PathExistsGlob seems like a
better fit. Additionally, it is worth noting that the following from
the systemd.path documentation:
"If a path already exists (in case of PathExists= and PathExistsGlob=)
or a directory already is not empty (in case of DirectoryNotEmpty=) at
the time the path unit is activated, then the configured unit is
immediately activated as well. Something similar does not apply to
PathChanged= and PathModified=."
Given that it appears with PathChanged the apport-noui service would
never be run during boot up, again not what we want.
However, making these changes seems to have caused some strange test
failures with the apport's tests.
