Not sure if this is the right way to do it but it worked for me

pbuilder login --save-after-login
apt-get nano
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
added "restricted universe multiverse" (the default is main)
Ctl-o
Ctl-x
apt-get update
exit

Then created a new hook file called "B90depens" and added an "apt-get
update" and "apt-get -y install" line that installed all the needed
dependencies,

pbuilder build *dsc

Works like a charm, it takes a lot longer now, but that's ok

Thanks norsetto for the help =)

Thanks crimsun I saw one of your posts on IRC float by talking about
pbuilder and the B91dpkg-i hook file so I thought I would check it out.=)

This has helped me to automate some of my workflow, and that's a good
thing  =)
