Public bug reported:

Scheduled-For: ubuntu-25.11
Ubuntu: 5.49
Debian Unstable: 5.51

A new release of autopkgtest is available for merging from Debian
Unstable.

If it turns out this needs a sync rather than a merge, please change the
tagging from ['dcr-merge'] to ['dcr-sync'], and (optionally) update the
title as desired.

If this merge pulls in a new upstream version, also consider adding an
entry to the resolute Release Notes:
https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/resolute-raccoon-release-notes/

### New Debian Changes ###

autopkgtest (5.51) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Paride Legovini ]
  * Assume the base testbed release to be the one providing base-files
    Related changes:
    - Update APT index individually for newly added sources
    - t/mockup-commands: implement fake apt-cache policy
    - d/autopkgtest: adapt tests to new release detection logic
    - get-release: drop script, superseded by new release detection logic
    - autopkgtest(1) update documentation on how the testbed release is detected
  * build-qemu/docker: don't use archive.ubuntu.com for LTS releases
  * Run ps(1) on leaked processed only if ps(1) is available.
    Thanks to Ferenc Wágner (Closes: #1112625)
  * a-b-lxd: honor the lxd remote when cleaning up old images
  * CI:
    - Run Ubuntu Salsa CI on Questing (current devel release)
    - Salsa CI: disable the autopkgtest i386 job
    - Bump timeout for the lxc jobs

  * unshare: cleanup temporary tarball at exit
