I have updated the HOWTO. As far as for building personal packages, you are right. But, as the default pbuilder behavior is to wipe out the temporary chroot after every session, that should work for most people. I haven't read far enough into the docs to find out how to get it preserve the installed packages, but that is because I like being able to build in a clean environment every time and don't have an inclination to change it. But, your point is taken. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~sanchezr
