I was thinking over this code this weekend, and I am worried about this one case:

1. user install pbuilder, lets pbuilder overwrite the config
2. user finds that auto-detected value doesn't work (it didn't have the right arch, etc.)
 and modifies /etc/pbuilderrc

3. user upgrades pbuilder

I have a gut feeling that pbuilder won't ask if it should overwrite
the config file in 3, and the user is going to end up with a broken
config.

What do you think?
