NAME

       pbuilder-dist-simple - simple multi-distribution pbuilder wrapper

SYNOPSIS

       pbuilder-<dist> operation [...]

DESCRIPTION

       pbuilder-dist  is  a  wrapper  that  makes it easy to use pbuilder with
       chroots for many different Ubuntu/Debian distributions.   If  you  need
       more  features  than  pbuilder-dist-simple  provides,  have  a  look at
       pbuilder-dist.

USAGE

       Create one symlink to pbuilder-dist-simple for  each  distribution  for
       which  you want a build environment, naming them like "pbuilder-hardy",
       "pbuilder-gutsy", etc.

       Replace operation with the action you want pbuilder-dist-simple  to  do
       (create, update, build, clean, login or execute).

EXAMPLES

       pbuilder-gutsy create
              Creates a pbuilder environment for Ubuntu Gutsy.

       pbuilder-sid update
              Updates an existing Debian Sid environment.

       pbuilder-hardy build ./sample_1.0-0ubuntu1.dsc
              Builds the specified package on an already existing Ubuntu Hardy
              environment.

FILES

       By default, pbuilder-dist-simple will store all the files it  generates
       in ~/pbuilder/.  This can be changed by modifying the BASE_DIR value on
       the top of the  script  to  any  other  directory  you  want.   If  the
       directory doesn't exit, it will be created at runtime.
