Thanks. Fullquoting & crossposting.

I followed the instructions on the wiki exactly, and sbuild actually
works fine for some packages. For other packages, however, it hangs as
described above.
Going "stepwise" from one package to another to determine what causes it
to fail seems a bit difficult - i.e. I can't just replace debian/rules
without also replacing debian/control etc.
