When $PBUILDER_CONFIG is set we should use --override-config

When $PBUILDER_CONFIG is set we should use --override-config when calling cowbuilder update or at least when the pbuilder is adding new apt sources, otherwise those sources are not used.

Could you please expand/be more verbose what problem you're actually running into? (The --override-config is quite poorly documented and I'd like to make sure I understand its consequences.) Thanks!

Sorry for the late answer... The problem I'm trying to solve with this is that I need to use a different apt repository when I build production level packages and nightly packages (so that the dependencies get solved with packages from the production repo or the nightly repo).

What I do, is that before calling build-and-provide-package I build a pbuilderrc file that contains a OTHERMIRROR variable pointing to the corresponding repository. But this works only if cowbuilder --update is called with --override-config.

Another way to solve that would be to be able to define different pbuilder chroot to be used by jenkins-debian-glue right from the start... Or use 2 different building host for production packages and nightly packages... But I'd like to avoid that.
