Public bug reported:

I'm trying to build the package from this source code:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cooperjona/lightread/master/files

where the debian/ folder isn't in the repo's root, but in Ubuntu/debian.
I can't seem to find a way to specify this different path to the command

    bzr builddeb

Even if I cd to Ubuntu/ or specify "--build-dir Ubuntu" it still throws

    bzr: ERROR: Could not find changelog at
/home/kermit/projekti/bzr/drugi/lightread/trunk/debian/changelog in
tree.

Using dpkg-buildpackage I am able to build the package by simply cd-ing
to Ubuntu. Something like this should be possible in bzr-builddeb as
well (or at least specifying this alt. path via some optional flag).
