what's the problem with that? (especially compared to downloading
packages from ftp.*.debian.org, which is also done…)

why? If I call "sbuild foo.buildinfo" and that .buildinfo file has no
source hashes, then sbuild should fail. Easy. (?!?!)

You seem to imply that the Debian autobuilders will generate .buildinfo
files without source hashes - I think *that* is a problem - how can we
fix it?
