Is there a way to preserve pbuilder chroot environment?

[Mikhail Morfikov <mmorfikov@gmail.com>]

I'm new to building packages by using pbuilder tool, and I have to build
a package multiple times before it builds successfully, or in the way
I prefer. The most annoying part ot this is installation of
dependencies -- each time I build a package, it has to install
the same dependencies over and over.

I checked some of pbuilder options:
--save-after-login
--save-after-exec

But the first one only works with --login parameter, and the second one
doesn't work with --build at all. I could log into the chroot
environment and install all the dependencies the package requires, but
I suppose there's a better way to do it, or am I wrong?
