[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#564528: sbuild: please expose option BUILD_SOURCE in configuration file

[David Bremner]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.59.0-1
Severity: wishlist


Hi;

It would be nice if I could have 

$build_source=1

in ~/.sbuildrc 

as equivalent to the --source command line option.

Thanks,

David
