Existing users may need to review +their setup, due to the removal of sudo support. (User setup, part 4). +New users should use sbuild-createchroot(8) to set up a chroot, and +sbuild-adduser(8) to add users. + + +Chroots +======= + +If you don't have an existing chroot, sbuild-createchroot(8) describes +how to set one up. + + +Helper scripts +============== + +See sbuild-abort(1), sbuild-apt(1), sbuild-checkpackages(1), +sbuild-hold(1), sbuild-stats(1), sbuild-update(1), and +sbuild-upgrade(1). These scripts were previously found in +/usr/share/sbuild, which now contains symbolic links to the new +scripts in /usr/bin. The symbolic links will be removed following the +release of Lenny. + + +Extras +====== + +sbuild-stats +------------ +sbuild will keep databases of the time and space that builds +require if a couple files exist: + + touch /var/lib/sbuild/avg-build-{times,space} + chmod 664 /var/lib/sbuild/avg-build-{times,space} + chgrp sbuild /var/lib/sbuild/avg-build-{times,space} + +These have limited usefulness outside buildd context. See +the sbuild-stats(1) man page for more info. + + + +An schroot chroot with the same name (or alias) as the distribution +must be available. For example, to build in an unstable chroot, the +chroot must be named "sbuild-unstable" or "unstable" (in order of +preference). + + + -- Roger Leigh <rleigh@debian.org>, Sat, 16 Aug 2008 16:05:55 +0100 |
