I should point out that this is not actually functional /yet/. It
currently tracks sources and binaries for an arbitrary set of
suites/components/architectures, but does not yet use the information
to actually tell you what needs rebuilding. It's on my TODO list for
the near term.
One of the principal design goals was to make it easy to set up new
instances by being as generic as possible, so it will not have
dependencies on undocumented Debian infrastructure, and it will be
fully documented.
There are a couple of branches for this code; the most current is
the "db" branch in the main sbuild.git repo. Note that the user
interface is not yet polished, and the database service name is
hardcoded for the time being.
