dpkg version in buildd chroots

[Tobias Hansen <thansen@debian.org>]

Hi wanna-build team,

I have here a package [1] that keeps on trying to build on the buildds
(~60 attempts so far) and fails most likely due to the dpkg bug #848413.
The bug was fixed in dpkg 1.18.17 just 1.5 days ago.

I don't know how to check the dpkg version used in the chroots since it
does not appear in the build logs. Are the buildds still using dpkg
1.18.16? How frequently are the chroots updated?

Best,

Tobias
