I just ran "sbuild -Ad unstable --chroot-mode unshare putty" and it built fine. Perhaps pbuilder is doing something odd. sbuild is the tool used on Debian's build daemons, so I always prefer it. Try that and see if it behaves better? (This was using sbuild from testing, which has some changes to simplify setup. With older versions you'd need to follow https://wiki.debian.org/sbuild#Setup first.) -- Colin Watson (he/him) [cjwat...@debian.org]
