.TH PBUILDER\-DIST\-SIMPLE 1 "February 25, 2008" "ubuntu\-dev\-tools"
.SH NAME
pbuilder\-dist\-simple \- simple multi\-release pbuilder wrapper
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBpbuilder\-\fI<dist>\fR\fP \fIoperation\fR [\fI...\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBpbuilder\-dist\-simple\fP is a wrapper that makes it easy to use
pbuilder with chroots for many different Ubuntu distributions.
If you need more features than \fBpbuilder\-dist\-simple\fP provides, have a
look at
.BR pbuilder\-dist (1).
.SH USAGE
Create one symlink to \fBpbuilder\-dist\-simple\fP for each distribution
for which you want a build environment, naming them like "pbuilder\-lucid",
"pbuilder\-natty", etc.
.PP
Replace \fIoperation\fP with the action you want \fBpbuilder\-dist\-simple\fP
to do (create, update, build, clean, login or execute).
.SH EXAMPLES
.TP
pbuilder\-natty create
Creates a \fBpbuilder\fP environment for Ubuntu Natty.
.TP
pbuilder\-lucid update
Updates an existing Ubuntu Lucid environment.
.TP
pbuilder\-lucid build ./sample_1.0\-0ubuntu1.dsc
Builds the specified package on an already existing Ubuntu Lucid environment.
.SH FILES
By default, \fBpbuilder\-dist\-simple\fP will store all the files it
generates in \fB~/pbuilder/\fP.
This can be changed by modifying the BASE_DIR value on the top of the script
to any other directory you want.
If the directory doesn't exit, it will be created at runtime.
