[Bug 408390] Re: Please merge sbuild (0.59.0-1)(universe) from debian unstable(main)

[Bhavani Shankar]

Hello again andrea,

okay here goes the explanation for your queries

AFAIK sbuild builds packages from your own system under a chrooted
environment and as per the code snippet of sbuild-createchroot goes

# Make sure fakeroot and build-essential are installed
$conf->set('INCLUDE', add_items($conf->get('INCLUDE'),
				"fakeroot",
				"build-essential"));
we have to make sure that build essential and fakeroot gets installed in a chrooted environment and debfoster as my understanding goes is used to selectively install packages and here it is not essential to have debfoster as fakeroot and build essential already get included in the build in a chroot environment as per the above code snippet comment requirement so as to make sure that build essential and fakeroot gets installed..

and the package is maintained (in the upstream also) actively and
vigorously  by debian buildd maintaintainers and there should not be a
change I think.

Regards
