Completely correct; but there are two other flavors of
pbuilder-satisfybuilddeps which you can configure via
PBUILDERSATISFYDEPENDSCMD in pbuilderrc which are
pbuilder-satisfydepends-experimental (which will try the default
candidate APT version first, then all versions in increasing order for
each build-deps), and pbuilder-satisfydepends-aptitude, which is still
very young but can deal more easily with complex cases (and very fast).
This is more or less covered in the pbuilder documentation, in the
pbuilding for experimental section.
