Package: sbuild Version: 0.78.1-2 Severity: wishlist Hello,
since release 0.77.0-1 (commit 1159497b26aabbb3380ac3475c11aff556ca1de2), sbuild sets the apt configuration option `APT::Keep-Downloaded-Packages` to `false`. This results in all downloaded packages (e.g. build-dependencies, lintian and dependencies, etc.) to be thrown away immediately. While I agree that this should be the default behaviour, there's situations when instead keeping the packages would be desired: when you're on a data-limited plan or have limited bandwidth available and you keep rebuilding a package for debugging purposes, it can be really annoying that sbuild keeps re-downloading all required packages on each iteration. For now, I just commented out the respective line that sets the option in `/usr/share/perl5/Sbuild/ResolverBase.pm`, but a proper sbuild configuration (and commandline) option would be really nice to have :) Kind regards jonas
