Yep :) Beside the pbuilder chroot, i've started two sid-based hosts in 
small embedded devices and one LXC host on my dev laptop for various 
tests.

I've reread the wiki page. The complete explanation describes the 
various way to declare the hardening part, depending on the version of 
dpkg and the type of production of the upstream software. As far as i 
understand, it's not wrong, it just describes multiple ways and methods. 
I prefer not to update as it is too risky to write something eroneous.

For WCC it's ok I've found the way. I've finished the copyright file 
too... Never written such a loooonnng file (450 lines! 9 different 
licenses!)... Nevertheless, license-reconsile is now happy :) I still 
have a small bug due to an invalid older merge when i tried to 
incorrectly manage the submodules and it should be ok.

The Dirb package has been pushed to alioth with all your review taken 
into account.

I'll push a mail for WCC when it's finished.
