** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+ For sbuild users attempting to build this package locally results in pkg
build failures due to inability of sbuild to handle the build deps alternatives
when running:
+ sbuild -s --source-only-changes
+
+ [Test Plan]
+ $ git ubuntu clone ubuntu-advantage-tools
+ $ cd ubuntu-advantage-tools
+
+
+ case ($release) in
+ hirsute)
+ resolve_alt="";;
+ xenial|bionic|focal|groovy)
+ resolve_alt="--resolve-alternatives;;
+ esac
+
+ $ sbuild -s --source-only-changes -d $release $resolve_alt
+
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ * Due to using the same d/control on all Ubuntu releases, simpler
+ sbuild commandline will require use of `--resolve-alternatives`
+ parameter on older releases where sbuild doesn't "seed" those build deps
+ alternatives by default.
+
+ * This should be low risk as PPAs ppa:ua-client/staging & ppa-
+ uaclient/daily are building successfully with these Build-Depends and
+ genereally sbuild allows for workarounds with using --resolve-
+ alternatives.

Hello,
[Problem]
=========
It looks like apt isn't able to resolve `dh-systemd | debhelper (>=
13.3)`. Whilst the line in logical and makes sense, that is, use dh-
systemd for Groovy and older releases (since it's not present in Hirsute
and thereafter) and use debhelper (...) for newer releases, et al.
However, apt is failing to resolve that for some reasons and it's thus
results in FTBFS.

$ git ubuntu clone ubuntu-advantage-tools
$ cd ubuntu-advantage-tools
$ sbuild -s --source-only-changes
and that should yield a failed build.
