That's a perfectly valid use case, IMO, and you do need the separation for that to work. I'll keep things the way they are. >> > Interestingly, the failure mode is a hang in verify_md5sums, because >> > dsc_md5sums returns null, and verify_md5sums ends up calling >> > /usr/bin/md5sum, which hangs waiting for input ... >> >> That looks like an outright bug. dsc_md5sums should, IMO, return an >> empty hashref on failure, but doesn't currently. > > Correct. I have attached a patch to - return an empty hashref on failure - not to run md5sum if the hashref is empty Please could you try the patch. It will apply to the current sbuild, or you can apply to svn://svn.debian.org/svn/buildd-tools/trunk/sbuild This doesn't fix the root cause of the problem, just the bug in the failure path. Could you verify that this works? Could you additionally try bind mounting /home into the build chroot, and see if this makes any difference? I think this may be a requirement (current limitation), due to keeping the file location the same when building with either sudo or schroot. If this is the case, it will take a bit more work to fix.
