Hm, ok I'll write you some short guidelines :).

See `man pbuilder` for details.

1. sudo pbuilder create --basetgz path/to/sarge.tgz --distribution sarge
2. always when you wanna build debs for sarge, add '--distribution sarge
--basetgz path/to/sarge.tgz' to the pdebuild/pbuilder command.

My directory structure:
$home/build
$home/build/pbuilder
$home/build/pbuilder/bases/{sid.tgz,sarge.tgz}
$home/build/pbuilder/build [here does pbuilder place the chroot,
specified in ~/.pbuilderrc (copy /etc/pbuilderrc to ~/.pbuilderrc btw)]
$home/build/pbuilder/result
$home/build/{helix,...} [all the sources]
