Bug Description

Binary package hint: pbuilder

Many sponsors will build packages twice in a row to ensure the archive will be reuildable. Adding a pbuilder option to do this would make it easier for people to test for this and improve the quality of the archive.

This option would restart the build in the same chroot with the post-build source from the first build.

That would be a great option to be added to pbuilder. I definitely agree.
