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

Currently (2010-10-17) 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 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.
