Package: sbuild Version: 0.63.2-1.1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
in order to ease comparison of build log, it was helpful to sort the
output of "dpkg --contents". Time stamps and file sizes still differ
but sensible diff programs like xxdiff or fldiff can handle that, so
this is already a major improvement.
Patch is really simple, see below.
