Bug Description
[Availability]
* since the dawn of times
[Rationale]
* development seed in Ubuntu should be able to build packages for Ubuntu. schroot used to be pulled in as part of the now deprecated touch-sdk stack. And repromoting that raised concerns that one should be able to build packages in the standard build environment.
[Security]
* no known CVEs against sbuild itself https:/
* written in perl =(
[Quality assurance]
* well maintained, used, and abused by most debian an ubuntu developers
[Dependencies]
* libsbuild-perl pulls in a few perl modules
[Standards compliance]
* Good, currently tracked just manpages erorrs at https://<email address hidden>#sbuild and nothing else jumps out at https:/
[Maintenance]
* Low to none, we mostly use sbuild as is, with occasional patches / temporary forks.
[Background information]
* sbuild rules them all.

Why is "written in perl" in the security section? :P
