I replied the same day, telling you to please file a bug with your patches to continue discussion there. But then there was no response from you anymore and I don't find your bug in the BTS. Maybe my mail got lost somehow or I fail finding the bug you filed? I'm also very excited about having yet another chroot backend being integrated into sbuild! Though my first comment would be the same as I gave those asking for a docker backend in #867176: maybe try adding that backend to autopkgtest first. Then more people would profit from having that type of backend available and no additional changes would be needed in sbuild because sbuild can already use autopkgtest backends for package building. Let me also use this opportunity to ask for help with maintaining sbuild. If any of you reading this ever felt that sbuild was the thing that is worth your time, please feel free to reach out to me. We need to make a new release fixing some easy but important bugs that accumulated in the BTS. I would be very happy to review and apply people's patches. :) Thanks! cheers, josch [1] CADf0C45pjYdQ+HMqetg6AtdqP8Ojw8CR3z1kZ2KTU9z3UA3csA@mail.gmail.com
