Hello Evgeny, thank you kindly for reporting this!
A workaround to get a Debian pbuilder environment is to change the MIRRORSITE to http:// ftp.debian. org (or another known good and known mirror) in /etc/pbuilderrc. Please check and confirm this works for you as it did for me.
Thank you again Evgeny for reporting this, it is a help to all of us.
