Hi!
I am getting the same exact error message and pdebuild refuses to build
my packages...

The attached patch fixes the bug for me.

I hope the Debian pbuilder maintenance team can apply my patch real
soon now, since this bug is probably preventing many pbuilder-managed
chroot environments to be used normally.


P.S.: Legal details: I think my patch is too trivial to be covered by
my copyright; anyway, should it turn out to be actually copyrighted,
I hereby release it under the same terms as pbuilder itself (that is to
say, under the terms of the GNU General Public License, version 2 or
any later version).
