I suspect that's exactly what's happening. I think we now have two bugs. 1. --build-products-dir makes dgit /read/ build products from a new dir, but it should probably also write the source package it generates to that dir 2. even if Ian wants to have dgit continue to put generated source packages in .. no matter what, it needs to be able to read them from .., even when --builds-products-dir points somewhere else. -- Sean Whitton
