Sorry to say, but managing the sources.list within pbuilder's
base.tgz is a mess.

Would it be possible to simply pass a complete sources.list to
pbuilder using a filename, instead of struggling around with
${COMPONENTS}, ${OTHERMIRROR}, --distribution, --mirror and
whatever?


Maybe something like

pbuilder --create -f /my/sources.jessie.list --basetgz /var/tmp/base.tgz

?


Many thanx
Harri
