hi,

i use a pdebuild script derived from pbuilder-distribution.sh for building
packages in an x86 sid chroot on my amd64 box.  however, this presents
a problem if i want to use options such as --auto-debsign, because the
resulting filename (which contains the arch) will differ from what is
expected, and thus debsign is told to sign a non-existant file.

so, i am requesting that a cmdline option be provided by pdebuild
which is passed to underlying commands if appropriate, and which
is also taken into consideration for situations like the previously
mentioned with debsign.


thanks,
	sean
