Hi there!

Indeed, sbuild in backports is not not installable.

dkg, you had the intention to upload gnupg 2.1 to backports. Is there
anything that's holding it?

Lucas, could you upload a version of sbuild to BPO without this hard
requirement, and maybe with the fix I suggested for the keygen thing?
While not the definitive solution, this would fix it in the mean time.

Cheers,
