You are asking for an "overlay" chroot, so you want to update the source
of the chroot, not the chroot itself.

The correct command to use was always “sbuild-update [options]
source:sid-amd64-sbuild”.

At least that's my understanding and what my own chroot update scripts
have been doing for ages.

Cheers,
