I don't use cowbuilder on my desktop machine (I just use pbuilder), so it was my first time following the instructions on the GIS policy (http://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/policy/packaging.html#git-pbuilder). Unfortunately, my laptop broke before I had a chance to work out what I had done wrong. From memory it did not find the hooks directory, or there was a message that no hooks were found in there. I can't remember. But at least it sounds like it might not be my fault (the hooks I mean - breaking the laptop was my fault) :-) The other question I wanted to ask was how you can do an update of the chroot easily. If found myself doing: sudo cowbuilder --update --distribution=sid --basepath=/var/cache/pbuilder/base-sid.cow which is very long. Do others make an alias, or is there a way to store some defaults? Maybe a small tweak is due for the instructions (which I am happy to do if we agree the fixes here)? Cheers, Ross
