Replacing:

pkg_converter = unittest.mock.Mock(spec=convert.PkgConverter)()

...with:

 pkg_converter = convert.PkgConverter()

...does the trick. convert.PkgConverter is already a mock.

Yeah, but that just seems to hide issues. I didn't write the test myself and I'm still figuring out how it's supposed to work but it looks pretty much as if things should be run through the real `PkgConverter` object and the mock just exists to be able to inspect what was called and such.
