Bug Description
sbuild 0.74.0-1 brings many new improvements to the tool that developers who happen to install the LTS (e.g. developers for Ubuntu LTS-based derivatives et. al) would greatly benefit from having.
Here is the complete changelog (from Debian) for this new upstream release:
sbuild (0.74.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release
* Install dose-distcheck and lintian for the native architecture
* remove DCMD config value which is not used and just uselessly making
libsbuild-perl depend on devscripts
* use dpkg-query instead of grep-status so that dependency on grep-dctrl is
not needed anymore
* suppress schroot writing to stderr in sbuild-createchroot
* check for modprobe in sbuild-createchroot
* Add missing newline character to a bunch of error messages
* dose3 failures no longer mask the --build-
* Build arch: all packages by default (closes: #870263)
* Run lintian by default (closes: #870263)
* sbuild-
* add sbuild-

Among these changes are things like running Lintian by default and --command-prefix which I know I'll personally use.
I volunteer to complete this merge from Debian should this FFe be accepted.
Thanks.
Since the Launchpad builders use sbuild, subscribing Colin Watson explicitly.
