[Buildd-tools-devel] Bug#495517: sbuild: Fails to parse --arch properly.

[Cyril Brulebois]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.57.6-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

I tried to use sbuild to set up an i386+amd64 build box, but I noticed
that --arch isn't parsed properly: no argument is taken into account.

Please find attached a patch to fix this; at least I'm currently
building i386 packages. :-)

Cheers,
