Check out cowbuilder. The follwing references should get you going:

http://wiki.debian.org/cowbuilder
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CowdancerHowto
http://lkraider.eipper.com.br/blog/2007/10/cowbuilder-ccache.html

I'm using cowbuilder to build packages for Etch, Lenny, Sid and Ubuntu
Intrepid - works like a charme. Sometimes just cdebootstrap fails, you
should then try debootstrap instead.
