The build take place in /var/cache/pbuilder/build (Table 8.1 of [1])
So the var extension did the trick.

I usually do two builds :
- using a chrooted environment with a non root account
the schroot env is build using [2]
- do the build with pdebuild that use a sudo
I will try to improve the build command using 6. of [1] (BUILDUSERID and
BUILDUSERNAME)
