Not finding the bootstraping script isn't really a minor problem in the
script, its a blocker problem. I don't object to the severity drop
though.

pbuilder-dist, a few lines down from where you cut my paste below (Its
possible I included it in a different email?)

Is there a newer version which doesn't require a newer devscripts, or
will I have to try and backport devscripts to resolve this?

(I've encountered another issue with the passing of --keyring to
debootstrap which is fixed in a later version too)
