Package: sbuild
Version: 0.62.3-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

It looks like one can't use ~ in ~/.sbuildrc?

$ grep log_dir ~/.sbuildrc 
$log_dir = '~/build/logs';

$ sbuild $something
Could not create '~/build/logs': No such file or directory
Could not create '~/build/logs': No such file or directory
Could not create '~/build/logs': No such file or directory
sbuild (Debian sbuild) 0.62.3 (11 Jun 2011) on […]

$ ls -ld ~/build/logs
drwxr-xr-x 2 kibi kibi 4096 Jun 17 14:24 /home/kibi/build/logs

Mraw,
KiBi.
