Replying to my own bug :).

After lot of rework on the way pbuilder could be invoked....
...I discovered that :

* --distribution should be place early in parameters to be really
taken into account. If not 'sid' is chosen whatever your parameter is.

* --mirror and --othermirror have different semantics, so the manual
may be improved to focus attention of the [new] user. For example I use
a combinaison like this:

	--mirror http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ \
	--othermirror "deb http://localhost/debian unstable main"

Best regards,
Michel
