So this actually is about two different bugs. -1 is about apt-get
build-dep doing something different from apt-get install and -2 is about
libjpeg9, which currently fails to build from source under sbuild:
(with sbuild 0.68.0-1)

| The following packages have unmet dependencies:
| sbuild-build-depends-libjpeg9-dummy : Depends: automake-1.14
| E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
| apt-get failed.
| E: Package installation failed
| Not removing build depends: cloned chroot in use
In particular, fixing -1 will not automatically fix -2, which is why I
have turned it into an independent bug.
