qemu-debootstrap(1) Debian qemu-debootstrap(1)NAME
qemu-debootstrap - QEMU debootstrap wrapper
SYNOPSIS
qemu-debootstrap [options]
DESCRIPTION
The qemu-debootstrap wrapper calls debootstrap(8) making use of the --foreign and --second-stage options, and copies the appropriate
qemu-user-static(1) binary into place in order to install cross-architecture chroots. In order for it to work seamlessly, the binfmt-sup-
port package must be installed.
SEE ALSO debootstrap(8), qemu-user-static(1).

FILES
$HOME/.mk-sbuild.rc
Sourced for environment variables (defined above).
$HOME/.mk-sbuild.sources[.$DISTRO]

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
