I hit this trying to use sbuild to build a package in an unstable chroot. For the benefit of anyone else who hits this in that context and ends up reading this bug report, I found I could avoid it by telling schroot not to upgrade the chroot before building, like so: sbuild --no-apt-upgrade --no-apt-distupgrade -dunstable PACKAGE.dsc This is only a good idea if your unstable chroot was updated recently though.
