That's right. In such cases, I do not say "fails to build when using dpkg-buildpackage -A" in the Subject itself. If I say that in the body, it's just for completeness. A good bug report should be exact and accurate, and "dpkg-buildpackage -A" is what I really did. > Apparently you did that test rebuild for testing, not unstable. Not just apparently.

There are too many broken packages in unstable, and Lucas Nussbaum and Chris Lamb already report most of them. > Then you avoid filing issues which are non-issues. Please don't say that. This was an issue when I reported it, because packages in stretch *must* be buildable in stretch.

Well, maybe this is a bug in sbuild. I'm Cc:ing Johannes Schauer, sbuild maintainer, in case he has any idea about how to avoid this minor glitch. Thanks.
