Christian,
The machine is already using your +bp packages - thanks.
It's for rebuilding the mythtv source (via debuild, rather than a
dedicated build chroot) to test patches on this specific machine,
which is tied to using Wheezy. I'm curious how you satisfy the missing
deps automatically when (re)building automatically for
wheezy-backports in a dedicated chroot?
It wouldn't be a problem with rebuilding on sid/stretch as deps will
be available, but appears to stop anyone using Wheezy builds from
being able to easily test patches etc without manual intervention to
satisfy the build-deps.
