[Pbuilder-maint] Bug#452567: pbuilder always installs Build-Depends-Indep, even for --binary-arch builds.

Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.175
Severity: normal

  If I run "pbuilder build --binary-arch foo.dsc", pbuilder still
installs all the Build-Depends-Indep of foo.  This wastes time, and also
makes pbuilder less useful for build testing (packages sometimes fail to
build without Build-Depends-Indep).
