Isn't it policy's job to reflect best current practice, not dictate it? This line of argumentation gets a bit silly and circular rather quickly. It might be more helpful to know why sbuild explicitly does it this way, see if a change is feasible, and then work towards making it policy, rather than using policy as a stick. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
