Bug#693952: pbuilder: please change the default build place from /tmp/buildd to what Debian uses

[Paul Wise]

Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.213
Severity: wishlist

The Debian buildd machines use this path to unpack and build source
packages, please switch to it for compatibility:

/build/buildd-<package>_<binary-version>-<arch>-<XXXXXX>/

The XXXXXX is the template from the mktemp --directory invocation.

The advantage of this is that no build systems will embed /tmp in their
binaries nor build system, which means no potential security issues from
that and also grepping source code for /tmp after a build becomes much
less noisy.
