Umh... If you are building packages for Debian, I strongly suggest you
set up a complete chroot environment (i.e. not just using pbuilder,
but having all tools such as linda/lintian you use for packaging). It
will make your life much easier, and will allow you to test your
work.
I haven't really played with cowbuilder/cowdancer, but that might also
fit your needs.
