[Pbuilder-maint] Bug#419807: pbuilder: should depend on cdebootstrap >= 0.3.16 for lenny support

Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.166
Severity: minor


pbuilder should depend on a cdebootstrap that provides lenny suport,
otherwise partial updgrades would show lenny as a possible --ditribution
value but the create command would fail as shown below:

root at katie:~# pbuilder create --basetgz ~des/.pbuilder/lenny.tgz
--distribution lenny
Distribution is lenny.
Building the build environment
 -> running cdebootstrap
 /usr/bin/cdebootstrap
 E: Unknown suite lenny
 pbuilder: cdebootstrap failed
  -> Aborting with an error
	 -> cleaning the build env
	     -> removing directory /home/des/.pbuilder/build//27304 and its
			 subdirectories

Checking cdebootstrap changelog[1] shows that support was added in
0.3.16 and in fact after upgrading it works as expected.
