mk-sbuild [options...] <release> DESCRIPTION
mk-sbuild creates chroots via schroot and sbuild. OPTIONS
Listed below are the command line options for mk-sbuild: --arch=ARCH What architecture to select (defaults to the native architecture). --name=NAME Base name for the schroot (arch is appended). --personality=PERSONALITY What personality to use (defaults to match --arch). --debug Turn on script debugging. --skip-updates Do not include the -updates pocket in the installed sources.list. --source-template=FILE Use FILE as the sources.list template (defaults to $HOME/.mk-sbuild.sources). --debootstrap-mirror=URL Use URL as the debootstrap source (defaults to http://ports.ubuntu.com where appropriate, official Ubuntu repositories for the sup- ported architectures). --debootstrap-include=alpha,beta Pass along a comma separated list of packages to debootstrap's --include argument. See debootstrap (8) for more details. --debootstrap-exclude=alpha,beta Pass along a comma separated list of packages to debootstrap's --exclude argument. WARNING: be careful using this option as you can end up excluding essential package. See debootstrap (8) for more details. --distro=DISTRO Enable distro-specific logic. When not provided, the distribution is determined from release. Currently known distros: "debian" and "ubuntu". --vg=VOLUME_GROUP Specify a volume group, and subsequently use a default SCHROOT_TYPE of "lvm-snapshot" rather than "directory" (via overlayfs or aufs) mounts. --type=SHROOT_TYPE Specify a SCHROOT_TYPE. Supported values are "directory" (default if --vg not specified), "lvm-snapshot" (default if --vg speci- fied), "btrfs-snapshot", and "file". ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
LV_SIZE Size of source LVs (defaults to 5G). SNAPSHOT_SIZE Size of snapshot LVs (defaults to 4G). SCHROOT_CONF_SUFFIX Lines to append to schroot entries. SKIP_UPDATES Do not include the -updates pocket (same as --skip-updates) DEBOOTSTRAP_MIRROR Mirror location (same as --debootstrap-mirror) DEBOOTSTRAP_INCLUDE Comma separated list of packages to include when bootstrapping (same as --debootstrap-include) DEBOOTSTRAP_EXCLUDE Comma separated list of packages to exclude when bootstrapping (same as --debootstrap-exclude; see warning above) SOURCE_CHROOTS_DIR Use SOURCE_CHROOTS_DIR as home of schroot source directories. (default /var/lib/schroot/chroots) SOURCE_CHROOTS_TGZ Use SOURCE_CHROOTS_TGZ as home of schroot source tarballs. (default /var/lib/schroot/tarballs) CHROOT_SNAPSHOT_DIR Use CHROOT_SNAPSHOT_DIR as home of mounted btrfs snapshots. (default /var/lib/schroot/snapshots) FILES
$HOME/.mk-sbuild.rc Sourced for environment variables (defined above). $HOME/.mk-sbuild.sources[.$DISTRO] Can contain a customized sources.list. It will be read when creating the schroot. If a file with ".ubuntu" or ".debian" is found (as appropriate) it will use used instead. See sources.list (5) for more details on the format. $HOME/.mk-sbuild.schroot.conf[.$SCHROOT_TYPE] Can contain a customized configuration section to be inserted into /etc/schroot/schroot.conf. If a file with ".lvm-snapshot", ".directory", ".file", or "btrfs-snapshot" is found (as appropriate) that file will use used instead. See schroot.conf (5) for more details on the format. USING THE CHROOTS
To CHANGE the golden image: sudo schroot -c ${SCHROOT_NAME}-source -u root To ENTER an image snapshot: schroot -c $SCHROOT_NAME To BUILD within a snapshot: sbuild -A -d $SCHROOT_NAME $PACKAGE*.dsc for example, to update the packages in a sid-amd64 golden image: schroot -c sid-amd64-source -u root -- sh -c "apt-get -qq update && apt-get -qy upgrade && apt-get clean" </dev/null SEE ALSO
