Merge lp:~gz/bzr/require_testtools_0.9.5_for_selftest into lp:bzr

[Martin Packman]

Change minimum required testtools version for selftest to 0.9.5 for unicode fixes

Had hoped to put this off for a little longer, as testtools 0.9.5 was only released at the end of July, but the test in lp:~gz/bzr/escape_selftest_console_output_633216 depends on fixed unicode support.

Why 0.9.5? The changes that allow testtools to work with non-ascii details (tracebacks, logs), were merged for 0.9.4, and 0.9.5 has some fixes for related fallout.

PQM may need its testtools package updating in order for this branch to land.

Change the minimum version of testtools required for selftest to 0.9.5

[Vincent Ladeuil (vila)]

I've filed rt #41340 asking for testtools-0.9.6 to installed in the bzr.dev pqm chroot.

[Vincent Ladeuil (vila)]

Marking as Needs Information until pqm is updated, this doesn't apply to the patch but makes
the pp job easier.

Merge bzr.dev to resolve news conflict

[Martin Packman (gz)]

Have merged trunk and PQM has been upgraded so this should be now landable.
