I'm not sure how you're invoking gbp but in my tests it passes on -tc correctly: $ gbp buildpackage --git-verbose -tc --git-no-pbuilder --git-builder=debuild gbp:debug: ['git', 'rev-parse', '--show-cdup'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'rev-parse', '--is-bare-repository'] gbp:debug: /bin/true [] [] gbp:debug: ['git', 'status', '--porcelain'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'symbolic-ref', 'HEAD'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'show-ref', 'refs/heads/master'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'rev-parse', '--quiet', '--verify', 'HEAD'] gbp:debug: debuild ['-tc'] [] dpkg-architecture: error: unknown GNU system type c, you must specify Debian architecture, too debuild: error: dpkg-architecture -tc -f gave error exit status 255 gbp:error: 'debuild -tc' failed: it exited with 255 But then debuild seems to have problems: $ debuild -tc dpkg-architecture: error: unknown GNU system type c, you must specify Debian architecture, too debuild: error: dpkg-architecture -tc -f gave error exit status 255 Are you using debuild?
