[Pbuilder-maint] Bug#381838: pbuilder: Please consider including the attached as example scripts.

[Jonas Smedegaard]

Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.156
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,

I personally dislike too many options on frequently used commands, and also dislikes maintaining 
per-user config files.

I've written some wrapper scripts to simplify creating, maintaining and using multiple 
pbuild/cowbuild environments. I believe the scripts to be useful for others too.


So I suggest adding them as example scripts to either pbuilder or cowdancer.
