NAME

       sbuild-adduser - add an sbuild user

SYNOPSIS

       sbuild-adduser [-h|--help | -V|--version] USER1 [USER2 [USERn...]]

DESCRIPTION

       sbuild-adduser  adds  the specified users to the sbuild group, granting
       them the privelege to build packages with  sbuild(1).   The  schroot(1)
       configuration  must  permit  the user to obtain root permissions in the
       chroot via the root-users  and  root-groups  options  in  schroot.conf,
       because  this  is  required  to  install  and remove build-dependencies
       inside the chroot.  This is normally done using the sbuild  group,  but
       additional users or groups may be added in order to grant finer-grained
       permissions, for example to restrict  individual  users  to  particular
       chroots.
