NAME

       empbuilderlib - Common functions for Emdebian chroots

DESCRIPTION

       empbuilderlib is intended solely for use on the build machine. Do not
       use these functions in second_stage_install !  empbuilderlib requires
       perl!

       empbuilderlib is a shell library which requires perl and pbuilder
       (which means bash!).  empbuilderlib draws in POSIX shell functions from
       emrootfslib to be able to call in functions from first_stage_install
       within debootstrap. The only reasons to continue putting new functions
       in here are if:

        1. The functions are only useful to create cross-building chroots OR

        2. the functions need to call pbuilder code directly and are not
           necessary within first_stage_install.

       There should be no need to call pbuilder code within scripts that
       generate a root filesystem.

AUTOCLEAN_APTCACHE

       Same as the pbuilder option but run by default in empdebuild to remove
       obsolete .deb archives from the apt cache directories used by
       empdebuild.

COPY_HOST_CONFIGURATION

       Copy hosts, hostname and resolv.conf from the system /etc/ directory
       and adapts /etc/hostname to use a different name (emdebian-$ARCH).

EXTRACTEMBUILDPLACE

       Modified version of the equivalent function in pbuilder-modules to
       extract the compressed chroot (used by empdebuild).
