+ A script that was used by Junichi Uekawa is now included in
+ pbuilder distribution, as <command>pbuildd.sh</command>.
+ It is available in <filename>/usr/share/doc/pbuilder/examples/pbuildd/</filename>
+ and its configuration is in <filename>/etc/pbuilder/pbuildd-config.sh</filename>.
+ It should be easy enough to set up for people who are used to
+ pbuilder. It has been running for quite a while, and it should be
+ possible to set the application up on your system also.
+ However, it is a new introduction, and please file bugs
+ to the Debian BTS if you know of possible problems,
+ or improved on the script considerably.
