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

Currently (2012-02-29) I am using the following setup:

~/.pbuilderrc contains:

  NAME="$DIST-$ARCH"
  APTCACHEHARDLINK=yes
  DISTRIBUTION="$DIST"
  DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS=("--arch" "$ARCH" "${DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS[@]}")
  BASETGZ="`dirname $BASETGZ`/$NAME-base.tgz"
  BUILDRESULT="/var/cache/pbuilder/$NAME/result/"
  APTCACHE="/var/cache/pbuilder/$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 I have the appropriate aptcache and buildresult directories set up
under /var/cache/pbuilder. I have several pbuilder images used for package
creation under /var/cache/pbuilder, among others:

/var/cache/pbuilder/squeeze-i386-base.tgz  /var/cache/pbuilder/lenny-i386-base.tgz

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.
