Ah, TIL; thank you! \o/
However, sbuild doesn't really support -nc, does it? Or am I missing something?
Another thing that I wanted to know was,
Is it okay to add d/source/format file? Or should I instead be
applying patches via d/rules file?
Because right now, there's no format file so using d/patches/
directory (like we generally do) messes up the build real bad.
Best,
