FYI: http://bugs.debian.org/214566 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.dpkg.general/11363/focus=11397 Apparently, sbuild has the same problem. And maybe this could be fixed in one place, if an appropriate interface emerges for dpkg-checkbuilddeps and higher level tools to communicate (well, I can dream).
