[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#630791: Wrong sbuild-up* usage in sbuild-adduser

[Cyril Brulebois]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.62.3-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

WRT the comments in <20110617102250.GJ1854 at mraw.org> (lists.a.d.o seems
to be lagging behind a bit), it's actually during the sbuild-adduser
call that we get wrong usage info (obsolete way of calling sbuild-up*):
| $ sudo sbuild-adduser kibi
| [sudo] password for kibi: 
| Adding user `kibi' to group `sbuild' ...
| Adding user kibi to group sbuild
| Done.
| 
| # Setup tasks for sudo users:
| 
| # BUILD
| # HOME directory in chroot, user:sbuild, 0770 perms, from
| # passwd/group copying to chroot, filtered
| # Maybe source 50sbuild, or move into common location.
| 
| Next, copy the example sbuildrc file to the home directory of each user and
| set the variables for your system:
| 
|   cp /usr/share/doc/sbuild/examples/example.sbuildrc /home/kibi/.sbuildrc
| 
| Now try a build:
| 
|   cd /path/to/source
|   sbuild-update <distribution>
|   sbuild-upgrade <distribution> apt-get upgrade
|   (or "sbuild-apt <distribution> apt-get -f install"
|        first if the chroot is broken)
|   sbuild -d <distribution> <package>_<version>

Mraw,
KiBi.
