I use 'pbuilder' in order to be able to make new packages with updated
debian tools like 'dh_make' and 'lintian' (actually only i used) and I
created the doubt because I know that 'piuparts' can handle the process
of conducting tests with the new package .. I can use it outside the
'pbuilder' environment but I began to think: use it outside 'pbuilder'
would be an unnecessary use of bandwith and 'piuparts' would be
outdated .. well, i'm waiting for the 'chroot' version

i'm using 'lintian' and (de)installing in the 'pbuilder' environment.
