Thank you! I also prefer the BTS for this. :)

The question is how to proceed. I fear that things will break. But I tested
this and nothing broke. But I know that people are *very* creative when it
comes to their ~/.sbuildrc... I fear that the only way to find out what breaks
is to upload and break things... :/

Thanks!

cheers, josch
