[Bug 1756195] [NEW] [FFe] Please merge sbuild 0.74.0-1 from Debian Sid

[Simon Quigley]

Public bug reported:

sbuild 0.74.0-1 brings many new improvements to the tool that developers
who happen to install the LTS (e.g. developers for Ubuntu LTS-based
derivatives et. al) would greatly benefit from having.

Here is the complete changelog (from Debian) for this new upstream
release:

sbuild (0.74.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release
  * Install dose-distcheck and lintian for the native architecture
  * remove DCMD config value which is not used and just uselessly making
    libsbuild-perl depend on devscripts
  * use dpkg-query instead of grep-status so that dependency on grep-dctrl is
    not needed anymore
  * suppress schroot writing to stderr in sbuild-createchroot
  * check for modprobe in sbuild-createchroot
  * Add missing newline character to a bunch of error messages
  * dose3 failures no longer mask the --build-deps-failed-commands
  * Build arch: all packages by default (closes: #870263)
  * Run lintian by default (closes: #870263)
  * sbuild-createchroot: add --command-prefix (closes: #870260)
  * add sbuild-debian-developer-setup package (closes: #859867)

Among these changes are things like running Lintian by default and
--command-prefix which I know I'll personally use.

I volunteer to complete this merge from Debian should this FFe be
accepted.

Thanks.
