[Pbuilder-maint] Ignoring Recommends

Hi,
I think apt is going to start installing Recommends in October, and
pbuilder needs to act. pbuilder is going to build with minimal
packages that the Build-Depends pulls in, because users can freely
build packages without the Recommended packages.
I think I need to add a configuration file installed somewhere at
"pbuilder create" time. I'm not sure if I want to handle it at
"pbuilder update" or "pbuilder build".
My initial thinking is as follows:
pbuilder create
Pro: simple
Con: does not support upgrade case.
adds extra file to base.tgz
pbuilder update
Pro: supports upgrade cases
adds extra file to base.tgz
pbuilder build
Pro: simple
does not add extra file to base.tgz
Con: doing it every time is an overhead
Hmm..
regards,
junichi
