Merged upstream (=debian), needs a release name bump for questing but otherwise
all of these look correct.
And they are more and more needed the more people bump into that using a laptop
deployment making their user be [email protected] :-)
I'm not merging 0.89.2 as I'm no subject matter expert and the list
0.88.3->0.89.2 is many pages long.
But this fix as proposed make sense to be applied immediately.
While testing if this would build fine (or fall victim to massive perl
changes) I was testing the very change already applying it manually on
my noble system. Got it to work well - sbuild builds the pkg just fine
now!
Double checked debdiff as git-ubuntu was down made me use some detours, all
good.

Title:
[SRU] Make sbuild usable for '[email protected]' users

Bug description:
[Impact]
With the increasing adoption of tools like authd, it's very likely
that Linux desktop users in corporate environments end up with their
usernames like '[email protected]', what doesn't play nice with
sbuild/schroot. Without properly escaping the username, the '@'
character ends up being interpreted as a string interpolation what
breaks the lock_chroot() subroutine.
Fore more information about the issue, please check the upstream bug:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/sbuild/-/issues/4
[ Test plan ]
1. Make sure to have a user account containing the '@' character in its name,
such as '[email protected]'.
2. Make sure to have a schroot environment ready. `mk-sbuild oracular` for
example to create one for oracular. Note: the mk-sbuild command is provided by
the ubuntu-dev-tools package, so make sure to have it installed.
3. Retrieve the sources of a simple package: `pull-lp-source hello noble`
4. Build the binary package with sbuild: `cd hello-2.10/ && sbuild -d
noble-amd64` (adjust the schroot environment name according to your computer's
architecture)
Expected results without the patches herein proposed is a failure
like:
```
I: NOTICE: Log filtering will replace
'var/run/schroot/mount/plucky-amd64-c9a17ed0-5932-4df1-ad6e-d4df512a37b0' with
'<<CHROOT>>'
Possible unintended interpolation of @org in string at -e line 50.
Global symbol "@org" requires explicit package name (did you forget to
declare "my @org"?) at -e line 50.
Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.
E: Error locking chroot session: skipping livecd-rootfs
```
Building the package should proceed normally with the patches applied.
[ Where problems could occur ]
The scope of the changes herein proposed is so small and self-contained that
I
don't expect any issues arising from it under any circumstances.
[ Other Info ]
I'm skipping 'Questing', as I expect it to receive the fix via debian merges,
sbuild version 0.89.2 (just accepted into Debian unstable) contains this
patch (alongside other stuff).
