This aspect of sbuild has not changed at all. sudo was used in two places: 1) to run chroot(8) as root to run commands in the chroot 2) as the dpkg-buildpackage -r gain-root-command With the changes, only (1) is changed; (2) may be set to fakeroot/sudo/whatever as required. (1) was changed so that users of sbuild don't need to have unrestricted passwordless root access to the host system. If you would like any further detail, please let me know! Regards, Roger -- .''`.
