My build directory looks like this:
 python-pyqtgraph_0.9.5-1_all.deb
 python-pyqtgraph_0.9.5-1.debian.tar.gz
 python-pyqtgraph_0.9.5-1.dsc
 python-pyqtgraph_0.9.5-1_i386.build
 python-pyqtgraph_0.9.5-1_i386.changes
 python-pyqtgraph_0.9.5.orig.tar.gz

Ubuntu 12.04

nd_adddistall failed. I get these errors during the installation of
each amd64 distribution (this is a 32-bit machine):

 W: Failure trying to run: chroot
/home/brain/deb/cow/nd+debian-wheezy-amd64.cow/. mount -t proc proc
/proc
 E: debootstrap failed
 W: Aborting with an error

Probably this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debootstrap/+bug/595908
Looks like the solution is to use a 64-bit machine instead..
