how did you create the chroot? Did you use sbuild-createchroot? I'm not yet able to reproduce your problem and sbuild's autopkgtest also seems to pass just fine: https://ci.debian.net/packages/s/sbuild/unstable/amd64/ Did you read the EXAMPLES section of the sbuild man page? Or the man page of sbuild-createchroot? Did you maybe try using sbuild-debian-developer-setup which is a script that should setup your machine so that you can start building packages right away? Also: why are you attempting to run sbuild with sudo? Thanks! cheers, josch
