Well, then go change DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS too.
That's currently not possible to do by the command line (as
--debootstrapopts only *adds* flags to it).
Would you find useful if --debootstrapots behaved like --debbuildopts
where an empty string resets the variable? Then you could do
pbuilder create --debotstrap cdebootstrap --debootstrapopts ''
--debootstrapopts --variant=buildd
without having to change pbuilderrc.
Note that I don't consider this a bug, really. I personally find
--force-check-gpg quite a must and I am impressed we got without it for
so long, so that's not going to go away.
I keep this bug open to understand whether a mean to reset
DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS via cli is welcomed or not.

and cdebootstrap can? :O interesting…
