pdebuild - Online in the Cloud

PROGRAM:

NAME

pdebuild - pbuilder way of doing debuild

SYNOPSIS

pdebuild [pdebuild options] -- [pbuilder options]

DESCRIPTION

A convenience program for pbuilder which invokes pbuilder after obtaining appropriate root
privilege in a Debian source directory. One must be inside the source tree containing the
debian directory.

By default, build log file is stored in ../<package>_<version>_<arch>.build.

PDEBUILD OPTIONS

The options have the form --option name which modify the operation semantics as explained
below. They are applied from left to right, and when options conflict, the option that
appear later take precedence.

--buildsourceroot [fakeroot]
The command used to gain root privilege for invoking dpkg-buildpackage

--pbuilderroot [sudo -E]
The command used to gain root privilege for invoking pbuilder.

--pbuildersatisfydepends [/usr/lib/pbuilder/pbuilder-satisfydepends]
The command used to satisfy (i.e. install) build-dependencies.

--architecture

Set architecture. This is currently required when it doesn't match the host
architecture.

--auto-debsign

Invoke debsign at the end of pdebuild process.

--debsign-k [key-id]
Pass -k option to debsign to specify which key-id to sign with.

--buildresult [Directory for build results]

The place where the build result is stored.

Note that for pdebuild, buildresult needs to be specified as a pdebuild option on
the command-line, not as a pbuilder option.

Note that the default value for buildresult is what is defined for pbuilder, which
is /var/cache/pbuilder/result and not ..

--configfile [Extra config file to use]

The configuration file is used, and passed on to pbuilder.

--debbuildopts [options to pass to dpkg-buildpackage]

The space-delimited list of options are passed to dpkg-buildpackage. This option
appends to pbuilder option --debbuildopts and may also be used to reset the list of
options by passing the empty string.

Multiple options are delimited with spaces.

Note that for pdebuild, debbuildopts needs to be specified as a pdebuild option in
the command-line, not as a pbuilder option.

--use-pdebuild-internal
Uses a different implementation of pdebuild, which calls clean and build inside the
chroot, using bind-mounts.

pdebuild-internal tries to run debian/rules clean inside the chroot. To do so, the
working directory is passed on inside the chroot, in the form of bind-mounting and
debuild is run.

This option will not protect the working directory and its parent directories from
the build scripts.

--logfile [file to log]
Specifies the build logfile to create. The messages generated during execution
will be written to the file, as well as standard output.

--pbuilder [pbuilder]
Specifies which command to invoke as pbuilder.

--help

Show a brief help message.

-- [pbuilder options]

After the -- symbol, an arbitrary number of pbuilder options can be specified. See
pbuilder(8) for a full list of options.

There is an exception that --buildresult and --debbuildopts need to be specified as
pdebuild options before the -- in order to be effective.
