I challenge this justification. Also I'm not going to downgrade it myself, pbuilder should not be removed from jessie just because of this bug, this is just not a reasonable possible outcome. I don't think that "serious" is the right severity. This bug does not provoke FTBFS on the auto-builders and it remains possible to build the package by invoking dpkg-buildpackage by hand. The fact that pbuilder fails to build a certain package does not means that if breaks the build of this package. Besides, > > In any case, policy currently has: > > > > 10.10.

This section is intended to mean that file names in these directory must be encoded in ASCII. I find it contrived to use this section as a definition of a the PATH that should be used for building. Kind regards, Thibaut.
