Description Joshua Lock 2016-07-29 10:58:31 UTC 
Browsing errors.yp.org for a recent AB run I noticed this QA issue in xcursor-transparent-theme:

ERROR: QA Issue: xcursor-transparent-theme-dbg is listed in PACKAGES multiple times, this leads to packaging errors. [packages-list]

What I didn't realise is that this issue is purposefully introduced by the selftest code. We should prevent such purposefully caused errors from making it to the error reporting tool.

I believe it makes most sense to do that before submission, in the same code base as the selftest code, rather than trying to filter them out when in erw when they are submitted.

Fixed in two commits, the last one in oe-core bb1cbb8d5bd7639554edcddf1d2eac4abdbb48c7.
