this bug was triggered by julian trying to work on my package sbuild in ubuntu. I usually upload all my packages with "dgit --quilt=gbp push-source" and hence the problem julian faces was created. I'd also have no problem with resolving this particular situation by adding an appropriate debian/source/options to sbuild for the next upload. Then the same thing would happen independent of whether the person building sbuild uses dgit or not. But would that be future proof as in: will dgit maybe adjust these options in the future and if yes, is there something dgit could do to inform me that my debian/source/options might be incomplete? What do you think? Thanks! cheers, josch
