I misinterpreted the results of my tests in my previous message. Indeed,
switching to ruby-minitest is not enough. There are in fact two causes:

- first, you should add ruby-mocha to the Build-Depends line. The
  caching_test.rb file uses an @expects method from mocha. I don't see
  right now how it gets loaded, since there are no require "mocha"
  statement, but at least, mocha is listed in the gemspec as a build
  dependency.

- the second is a bit more subtle: you need to add also rake to the
  build dependency. If you don't then the rake bundled with ruby2.1 will
  be used, which will prefer the version of minitest bundled with
  ruby2.1, which causes a conflict with ruby-minitest. Check the paths
  of the files in the error message:

/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/minitest/assertions.rb:17: warning: already initialized constant MiniTest::Assertions::UNDEFINED
/usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/minitest/unit.rb:80: warning: previous definition of UNDEFINED was here

the problem with the two versions of minitest occurs even if you don't
put ruby-minitest in the build-depends line, because ruby-minitest gets
pulled from the dependency chain:

ruby-actionpack -> ruby-activesupport -> ruby-minitest

even if it is (now) not needed, leave ruby-minitest in the build-deps,
it has the advantage to be explicit.

It is now working for me. I hope it will for you too :)
