You shouldn't try to preserve the environment, every time you build stuff you should have a clean installation.
I "developed" a set of scripts to easy have and manage multiple chroots and speed up building.
See https://gitlab.com/mapreri/settings/blob/master/pbuilder/scripts/pbuilder-common (rename the file like pbuilder-sid-amd64 (or symlink,as you prefer) that works in combo with this .pbuilderrc ( https://gitlab.com/mapreri/settings/blob/master/pbuilderrc) install on the host ccache and eatmydata, all the stuff will live in ~/pbuilder.
Maybe you can catch some hints on how to resolve your issue
(That repo is there to let me deploy a new system and keep track of some settings of some tools I use.)
