Package: sbuild
Version: 0.70.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Dear maintainers,

With gnupg 2.1, which will soon be the default in unstable,
`sbuild-update --keygen` prompts the user for a passphrase for the
generated keys.  This is confusing, and will probably break things if
the user actually enters a passphrase.

The attached patch fixes the problem.
