Just to let you know it worked 'out of the box', and I now have packages that seem OK. pbuilder is a very different animal under debian. The behaviour in Ubuntu is totally different. Thanks again for all your help and patience.

I have another problem. I installed the newly built packages - libsword9_1.7.3+dfsg-1_i386.deb and libsword-dev_1.7.3+dfsg-1_i386.deb from within my chroot debian packaging environment and successfully built from source a program called 'BibleTime' which is dependant on the above.

However, when trying to package BibleTime, dbuilder fails with the above not satisfied. I've not attached the entire log, but the error seems to be in:
 pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy depends on libsword-dev (>= 1.7.0); however:
  Package libsword-dev is not installed.
 pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy depends on libsword9 (>= 1.7.0); however:
  Package libsword9 is not installed.

Is this because the packages are unstable, or is there some magic I have to use to tell pbuilder where the locally held packages are? I installed them from the same directory that is above the bibletime source, and that is where they are still. I've re-read the Debian packaging guide, and it looks to me as though all dependencies must be met from the Debian package repo. Is this the case, or is there a workaround?

Kind regards,        Barry Drake/
