pbuilder for Debian
------------------------
This is a personal builder.
Try:
pbuilder create --distribution woody
to create the initial chroot build environment.
pbuilder update
would update the tarball.
pbuilder build some-random-.dsc
would build the file specified by the .dsc file in the chroot.
If you were a Debian Developer doing some development
of Debian packages, you may try invoking pdebuild from the Debian
source directory, to save you from much typing.
edit /etc/pbuilderrc if the default doesn't work, especially proxy.
Editing the mirror location is also recommended, although the default
should work fine.
Please report to the Debian Bug Tracking System against pbuilder
if a package does not build, and it seems like a genuine bug of pbuilder
(i.e. you cannot work around the build failure in any way).
Also, if something is missing and necessary on some arches,
please file a bug to "build-essential" for packages.
Testsuite:
Regression test is done in testsuite/ directory of the
pbuilder source package.
Most of the Debian archive seems to build with pbuilder;
keep up the good work.
Further reading
===============
This documentation is very terse. I recommend reading
pbuilder.8 and pbuilderrc.5 manual pages.
There is also a HTML manual now, pbuilder-doc.html,
which contains the FAQ and other entries.
When they are incorrect or misleading, please send bugreports to the
Debian BTS.
