  +        <para>
  +          cowdancer was introduced after the release of sarge; if you want to
  +          build packages for sarge with cowbuilder, you will need to workaround
  +          its unavailability.
  +        </para>
  +        <para>
  +          One way to workaround the problem is to set APTCONFDIR in pbuilderrc
  +          to point to a directory with a list of sources for APT which has both
  +          sarge and sarge-backports.
  +        </para>

  +          It is recommended to "Pin" the cowdancer package appropriately in
  +          this case, via the APT preferences mechanism.
