 This one looks much clearer and nicer, thanks

 Yeah; I think this ought to be split out; just like we have a tool to
 resolve build-deps which is sometimes used by people directly, we could
 have one to generate sources.list.  Let me see what I can come up with.

 Not sure what you mean here.

 I'm not sure I see why you use eval here?


 I'm a bit uneasy about using "--distribution jaunty-updates" and the
 like to mean "jaunty + jaunty-updates".  This seems overloaded in
 meaning and diverges from setting a single distribution.  Perhaps it's
 a naming issue, would it be --apt-template, things would be clearer,
 but pbuilder supported --distribution experimental since a long time,
 it wouldn't be nice to change that.  I'm a bit uneasy about this.  I'd
 love if we could find a good approach to avoid this.
