These errors are due to configuration file differences between
the packaged and buildd versions of the buildd package.  I
would recommend not using this or its companion wanna-build
packages on a buildd--they are not fully synced with the
current buildd versions provided by phil.

I would suggest just installing the sbuild packages (sbuild,
libsbuild-perl) and using the other versions of wanna-build
and buildd.

I'd like to get this done sometime soon, but I'm lacking
in free time at the moment.  One issue is that the packaged
wanna-build implemented a database abstraction to implement
PostgreSQL and MLDBM support where the buildd w-b just
converted over wholesale.  The new buildd w-b postgres
support needs porting over.  We implemented a more
sophisticated Postgres schema, so we also need to allow
conversion of the old Postgres schema to the new one as well.

Yes, I'm aware of this one; I think the logger starts up before
the system daemonised and so is using the initial PID rather than
the final daemon PID.
