ah okay. I do not consider myself responsible for the buildd scripts and libs
and according to "git log bin/buildd* lib/Buildd/" I have only ever touched
them five times in my 11 years of sbuild involvment. I consider the
responsibility for the buildd scripts 100% on the wb-team and when they
want/need to change something, at least as far as I am concerned, they can just
perform whatever change they want and upload it. Maybe Jochen wants to have a
say but from my side, the wb-team can just do whatever they need with that part
of sbuild. Thank you for your work!

Thanks!

cheers, josch
