Theoretically pbuilder can work with lvm snapshots, if you use pbuilder with --no-targz option. That's how pbuilder-uml works (or used to work, if there's a working uml). Scripting it up is up to somebody who gets around to it. OTOH, I was planning on getting cowdancer to the mainline to make a "cowbuilder" while at Debconf. LVM snapshots is good but it's a bit dramatic and requires a bit of free LEs on your LVM, which isn't always available. regards, junichi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
