sbuild-adduser
SBUILD-ADDUSER(8) Debian sbuild SBUILD-ADDUSER(8)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.
