This directory contains my scripts to build backports of R software from Debian
sid to older Debian distributions.

Currently (2009-07-06) I am using the following setup:

/root/.pbuilderrc contains:

	NAME="$DIST-$ARCH"
	APTCACHEHARDLINK=no
	DISTRIBUTION="$DIST"
	DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS=("--arch" "$ARCH" "${DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS[@]}")
	BASETGZ="`dirname $BASETGZ`/$NAME-base.tgz"
	BUILDRESULT="/exthd/pbuilder/$NAME/result/"
	APTCACHE="/exthd/pbuilder/$NAME/aptcache/"
	MIRRORSITE="http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/"
	OTHERMIRROR="deb http://security.debian.org $DIST/updates main|deb http://localhost/r-cran $DIST-cran/"
	COMPONENTS="main"

This means on my external USB drive mounted under /exthd, I have the
appropriate aptcache and buildresult directories setup under /exthd/pbuilder. I
have four pbuilder images used for package creation under /var/cache/pbuilder:

/var/cache/pbuilder/etch-amd64-base.tgz  /var/cache/pbuilder/lenny-amd64-base.tgz
/var/cache/pbuilder/etch-i386-base.tgz   /var/cache/pbuilder/lenny-i386-base.tgz

All of these have a standard Debian mirror and the security sources setup in
their /etc/apt/sources.list, as well as my local http package source where the
r-base package build results are available. I have also imported the apt key
of my repository inside the pbuilder chroots.
