 pbuilder (0.228) unstable; urgency=medium
 
-  Pbuilder changes its behavior regarding SHM handling: it'll now mount a
-  tmpfs in /dev/shm and set /run/shm as a symbolic link to the former.
-  Also the USERUNSHM variable is deprecated in favour of USESHM (but any
-  definition of the former will override the latter).
-
-  This will happen regardless of the Debian version of the chroot, and of
-  the architecture used, as it ought to be harmless if unused.
-  Administrators are suggested to drop any workaround in place to overcome
-  this deficiency in pbuilder, such as bind-mounting /dev/shm from the
-  host, to avoid situations like over-mounting.

+
+  * Pdebuild now uses dpkg-source directly to generate the dsc to pass to
+    pbuilder rather than dpkg-buildpackage -S, therefore DEBBUILDOPTS no
+    longer affect this. It will also no longer generate a source changes file
+    if BUILDRESULT is the parent directory, since the dsc will be overwritten
+    when copying back the build results; please use pbuilder's new
+    --source-only-changes option.
