(Thanks for opening the bug report and letting -boot@ know through x-d-cc as requested on IRC.) Since debian-installer-images is an arch-indep “package name”, I guess an easy way out would be to special-case it and not perform dpkg calls on it in lib/Sbuild/Build.pm's build sub? (Even fancier, letting tar xf do the work with that particular beast but that's another story, and I'm afraid I'm not patching + testing sbuild right now.) Mraw, KiBi.
