Hi folks,

I just subscribed to the list.  I've been using sbuild and friends for
quite a while now, and if it's OK, I'd like to get a little involved
in the project.

Is there any public CVS/svn/arch repository you use?  I saw a CVS Id
in sbuild.conf, but alioth doesn't show any CVS use.

I'll have a look at implementing $chroot_mode (#310863) later this
week, if possible.

Longer term, do you plan on packaging the rest of wanna-build, buildd
etc.  The last time I checked, the diff between your sbuild and
wanna-build CVS was only slightly different, but things may have
changed.

Lastly, a stupid luser question: I've set up an experimental chroot.
This has apt sources for both unstable and experimental, but sbuild
isn't installing experimental build-deps.  I've added this to
/etc/apt/preferences (in the chroot):

Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 900

and running apt-get in the chroot does the right thing, but sbuild
still gets it wrong.  Have I missed something obvious?  I intend to
use this for experimental autobuilding, as well as with manual sbuild
usage.


Many thanks,
Roger
