Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.220
Severity: important

Hello Mattia,

This following code snippet looks incorrect. Please look the logs that
follow. Can you please elaborate what the "hash" keyword is supposed to
do ?



if [ "$DEBDELTA" = "yes" ]; then
    if $CHROOTEXEC hash debdelta-upgrade 2> /dev/null ; then
        log "I: Using debdelta-upgrade for available deltas"
        if $CHROOTEXEC debdelta-upgrade ; then
            :
        else
            log "W: debdelta failed, continue and use plain apt to update the system"
        fi
    else
        log "W: debdelta is enabled but not (yet) installed, not using it"
    fi
fi

As yoou can see debdelta is installed and available. But, with the
current code, it does not work.
