--distribution is not required unless you have --override-config, thus --basetgz is the only required option. > Of course I have that scripted (in .pbuilderrc), but it would be > best if pbuilder could just support this. > > It could always fall back to just base.tgz if base-$(DIST).tgz does > not exist. > > And for execute or login, I would now specify --distribution as > well, which would select the right base.tgz file. The --basetgz > option is still useful to override that default. regards, junichi -- [EMAIL PROTECTED],netfort.gr.jp} Debian Project -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
