.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B "create"

.B "base.tgz"
for the specified distribution.
.TP
.B "update"
Updates the
.B "base.tgz"
for the specified distribution.
.TP
.B "build"
Builds the package specified by
.I ".dsc-file"
in the chroot environment created using the
.B "base.tgz"
.TP
.B "clean"
Cleans up the directory specified by the configuration
.B "BUILDPLACE"
and
.B "APTCACHE"
specified in
.I "/etc/pbuilderrc"
.TP
.B "login"
Logs into the chroot, and cleaned up afterwards.
Any changes you make will not be kept.
.TP
.BI "--basetgz [" "basetgz-location" "]"
Specifies the location of
.B "base.tgz"
.TP
.BI "--buildplace [" "location of build" "]"
Specifies the location where building and
.B "base.tgz"
updating and creation takes place. This is
a temporary work directory.
.TP
.BI "--buildresult [" "location to put build result" "]"
Specifiees the location the build result gets into after building.
The deb files and other files that have resulted from build
is copied there.
.TP
.BI "--mirror [" "mirror location" "]"
Specifies the url of Debian mirror to be
specified in
.B "sources.list"
inside the chroot.
This option is only valid when distribution is being specified, for
update and build targets.
The format is something like:
.I "http://http.us.debian.org/debian"
which should point to your favorite mirror.
.TP
.BI "--nonusmirror [" "mirror location" "]"
The non-US mirror, specified like the
.B "--mirror"
option
.TP
.BI "--othermirror [" "apt deb line " "|" " other deb lines... " "]"
The lines which is added to the sources.list, delimited with
.B "|"
Like
.B "deb http://local/mirror stable main|deb file:/usr/local/mirror ./"
.TP
.BI "--http-proxy [" "proxy" "]"
Specifies the http proxy url. Something like
.B "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/"
should do.
.TP
.BI "--distribution [" "distribution" "]"
Specifies the distribution used. Currently the supported values are
.B "sid"
and
.B "woody".
.TP
.BI "--removepackages [" "packages to remove" "]"
Removes the packages on creating the
.BI "base.tgz" "."
Use this option to remove potentially dangerous or undesirable
packages, like
.B "lilo"
which nobody will need to have inside a chroot.
Packages should be specified in a space-delimited manner,
surrounded in double quotations, like
.B """lilo gcc mawk"""
.TP
.BI "--extrapackages [" "packages to add" "]"
Adds packages specified as an addition to the default,
which is
.B build-essential
.TP
.BI "--configfile [" "configuration file to load" "]"
Loads the configuration file.
.TP
.BI "--hookdir [" "location of user scripts" "]"
Specifies the location where scripts for user intervention during
the create and update process are stored. Currently scripts are
executed at only one point, on eXit from the chrooted environment,
just before either a create or a build regenerated the base.tgz
file. The script names must be in the form
.B "X<digit><digit><whatever-else-you-want>"
much like boot scripts. The scripts must be executable and may
be either binaries or interpreted scripts. If it is a script
in other than Bourne Shell or Perl, it is up to the user to
ensure the interpreter was previously installed in the chrooted
environment. Files ending in ~ or .bak are ignored.
Although it may not seem necessary,
.B "pbuilder update"
does not invoke the hooks if
.B "--hookdir"
is empty, so if you want to avoid running hooks,
run pbuilder with
.B "--hookdir """""
.SH "FILES"
.TP
.I "/etc/pbuilderrc"
The configuration file for pbuilder.
.SH BUGS
This program is starting to have too many options already.
