New microrelease 1.4.7+1.48/zesty, 1.2.25/xenial

I might be re-using this bug for the matching changes in xenial and yakkety, unless these are subsets.

Added link to the Debian stretch-pu bug.

Sorry for the status noise, I sometimes keep forgetting that statuses have a very different meaning for SRUs than for normal uploads.

Hello Julian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted apt into zesty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/1.4.8 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-zesty to verification-done-zesty.

I used 1.4.8 and 1.2.25 now for some time, and there seem to be no regressions. The autopkgtests for zesty fail in a flaky test case, I should eventually backport the disablement of that.

Marking as verified-done for both.

This bug was fixed in the package apt - 1.2.25
