Thank you, Don, for your advice! I tried schroot, and it's awesome! I followed the steps on: https://wiki.debian.org/SchrootI was able to build my code just as on Buster. The difference between schroot and chroot is that with schroot you have assess to the files outside the root directory of chroot (like /srv/chroot/buster), and I'm thinking specifically about the home directory.

I also might want to try virtual containers, but it seems like an overkill.You might also try out schroot. Something like: apt-get install schroot ubuntu-dev-tools; mk-sbuild unstable; schroot unstable; will get you in an unstable chroot which you can use to build packages. [schroot+sbuild is what Debian developers often use instead of pbuilder, but either approach works.]
