I think this is the problem and shortcoming. If I generate a *_source.changes file for a -2 package, the orig tarball will not be included, nor will the .dsc file reference it — *because* it is assumed to be publicly available. sbuild can install build-dependencies, so it already interacts with an APT mirror. Wouldn't it make sense and be possible for it to also install missing source package components, or at least to try? -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems This space unintentionally left blank.
