Public bug reported:
Currently git-buildpackage runs prebuild command (if any) and then
setup_pbuilder which sets DIST and ARCH env variables.
So, we cannot use these variables in prebuild script, while this could
be very handy. Because with these variables it could be available to
create or update pbuilder environment before running git-pbuilder.
It is possible to set these variables like this:
DIST=oneiric git-buildpackage --git-pbuilder --git-arch=oneiric
but this is misleading because this way we can also do something like:
DIST=precise git-buildpackage --git-pbuilder --git-arch=oneiric
