[elbe-devel] [PATCH] elbe: pbuilder: workaround for aptitude segmentation fault

[Kurt Kanzenbach]

There seems to be a "known" problem with armhf and debian/sid pbuilder
changeroots. Aptitude just crashes. The workaround is just as simple:
do not use aptitude for dependency calculation.

Debian Bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=834990

Tested with stretch pbuilder project.
