Howdy all,
How do I specify the build area (‘sbuild(1)’ manual says use the
‘--build-dir’ option), and have the correct paths generated for the
post-build tools?
When I invoke an SBuild run:
sudo sbuild --build-dir=../build-area/ --dist unstable --source --arch-all
--run-lintian --run-piuparts --run-autopkgtest ../build-area/foo_3.4.5-2.dsc
The package builds correctly. But when the same SBuild run then invokes
Lintian, PIUParts, and AutoPkgTest, only Lintian receives the correct
path for files.
The post-build commands fail with an error indicating they could not
find the specified file.

How can I use the ‘--build-dir’ option as intended, *and* have SBuild
tell the post-build tools the correct paths to the files it generated in
the build area?
