Package: sbuild
Version: 0.63.1-1
Severity: normal

sbuild and its tools are hardly usable on chroots where the current
user is not allowed to be root (e.g. via root-groups). For example,
sbuild-update requires  you to enter your password 14 times just to
perform one apt-get update.

$ sbuild-update -u sid-i386
