** Description changed:

  pbuilder version 0.215ubuntu7, currently in both trusty and utopic, still has
  DISTRIBUTION=saucy
  in its /usr/share/pbuilder/pbuilderrc . While easy to work around, this is 
inelegant.
  
  Maybe the default should be something like $(lsb_release -s -c) ? I'm
  not sure it's safe to evaluate it at run time, but package build time
  should be OK.
+ 
+ 
+ SRU for 14.04
+ [Impact]
+ Developers setting up pbuilder on Ubuntu 14.04 will, unless specifying 
otherwise, get an older EOL-ed release selected as the default distribution.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 0. Verify ~/.pbuilderrc doesn't override the defaults by setting a value for 
DISTRIBUTION
+ 1. Run `sudo pbuilder create`
+ The output should mention "Distribution is trusty.", not "Distribution is 
saucy."
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ I'm not familiar with this package, but I would assume very little. It only 
updates the default of one property to a valid distribution. It is presently 
fully possible to set the same value manually without any problems.
