Bug Description
Binary package hint: sbuild
When building security updates, schroots do not have the Universe component enabled. In Lucid, the "diff" package is replaced with the "diffutils" package, and the "diff" transitional package is in -universe. Unfortunately, lucid shipped with "diff" in build-essential instead of "diffutils".
This has the effect of sbuild trying to install diff, and failing.
Although this should be fixed in the build-essential package, releasing it as an update wouldn't work for schroots that don't have -updates enabled. Adding a workaround to sbuild is probably the best solution for now.

build-essential instead of diffutils. This causes schroots that don't
have universe enabled to fail to install dependencies. (LP: #741897)
