Live upgrade question

I want to basically update an ABE that someone created a few months back.

I'm sure stuff has changed since it was made, and I was going to delete it and create a new one.

But from what I'm looking at, the lumake appears like it would be a faster approach.

I want to use live upgrade to apply a recommended patch cluster, I would assume that this would also be the best way to go instead of deleting the original BE and creating a new one prior to patching.

Anyone have any experiences using the lumake command?

NAME
sbuild-update - update, upgrade, and clean an sbuild chroot with apt-get SYNOPSIS
sbuild-update [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [--arch=architecture] [-u|--update] [-g|--upgrade] [-d|--dist-upgrade] [-c|--clean] [-a|--auto- clean] [-r|--autoremove] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] sbuild-update -k|--keygen (DEPRECATED) sbuild-upgrade [-h|--help] [-V|--version] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] (DEPRECATED) sbuild-distupgrade [-h|--help] [-V|--version] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] (DEPRECATED) sbuild-clean [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [-c|--clean] [-a|--autoclean] [-r|--autoremove] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] DESCRIPTION
sbuild-update runs apt-get inside the specified chroot performing update, upgrade, dist-upgrade, clean, autoclean, and/or autoremove depending on the options specified on the command line. sbuild-upgrade, sbuild-distupgrade, and sbuild-clean, are deprecated. They now simply run sbuild-update with the appropriate options (--upgrade or --dist-upgrade for sbuild-upgrade or sbuild-distupgrade respectively) along with whatever arguments were passed in the scripts. OPTIONS
Actions -h, --help Display this manual. -V, --version Print version information. --arch=architecture Update chroot for the architecture specified. -u, --update Perform an apt-get update. -g, --upgrade Perform an apt-get upgrade. -d, --dist-upgrade Perform an apt-get dist-upgrade. -c, --clean Perform an apt-get clean. -a, --autoclean Perform an apt-get autoclean. -r, --autoremove Perform an apt-get autoremove. -k, --keygen Generate a GPG public/private key pair for self-signing local apt archives, used for installation of dependency packages. Note that this requires a significant amount of entropy (randomness) and may hang on systems with poor entropy sources, such as headless sys- tems without direct user input. In this situation, it is advisable to create the key on a trusted local system, and copy the files to the build system by hand from /var/lib/sbuild/apt-keys/. Chroot selection CHROOT The chroot to use. Note that 'o', 's', 't', 'u' and 'e' may be used as abbreviations for 'oldstable', 'stable', 'testing', 'unsta- ble' and 'experimental', respectively. EXAMPLES
To update the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update --update unstable To upgrade the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update --upgrade unstable To clean the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update --clean unstable To perform an update, dist-upgrade, clean, autoclean, and autoremove for the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update -udcar unstable AUTHORS
