  Autopilot needs to be run as root to access /dev/uinput

Status in Autopilot:
  Fix Released
Status in autopilot package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in autopilot source package in Raring:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Autopilot has started making use of /dev/uinput to generate device
  events on systems where X11 is not available. However, currently this
  means that autopilot needs to be run as root, which is less than
  ideal.
