Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.226.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi Mattia,

subject basically says it :)

< h01ger> | mapreri: does pbuilder filter environment variables? sbuild
does and it seems useful. josch described it in https://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/148033497146.12519.17551404937723334890@localhost
< mapreri> deki: if there were such a feature there would be a whitelist
like sbuild has
< josch> In fact I want to replace that whitelist in the next
sbuild release.
< josch> And instead use
Dpkg::Build::Info::get_build_env_whitelist from libdpkg-perl
* | h01ger thinks josch had a point when he said that pbuilder+sbuild are used to provide a clean environment

and many thanks for maintaining pbuilder! :)

cheers,
	Holger
