Thanks for your report.

Looking at how you've integrated pbuilder/dpatch
and other stuff is pretty exciting.

It would be really nice if things start working out-of-the-box,
or if not, more people set up such environment and things get
easier to work with.


Nowadays, since Ubuntu is becoming more popular
we will be facing a situation where we need to maintain more
forks...
