That's a good point. I'd rather print the the command on stdout but then we'd need to make sure we're not subject to any quoting so it's 1:1 identical, the joys of shell. Let's disable the output by defualt and trigger it by GIT_PBUILDER_DEBUG. This allows us to have more verbose output in the future. Fix pushed to git. Cheers, -- Guido
