Hi

With the introduction of --keep-session in sbuild 0.62.0-1, the default
- --purge behaviour has changed (later renamed --purge-session). Now -p
'successful' will always purge my cloned session, because --purge-session
defaults to 'always'.

I propose to restore the old behaviour, make --purge a convenience option
to set all purge options (build dir, build deps, session) and introduce
- --purge-build(dir) for purging the build (directory).

Probably sbuild should also warn the user, if one chooses conflicting
option, e.g. purge-build='successful' and purge-session='always'?

The patch also includes a hunk to color the message containing the session
id, when a build failed and is not cleaned up.

Comments?

Regards,

Jan-Marek
