The launchpad folks indicate that sbuild is similar to what they use to
create their debian packages for the PPA environments.

I have manged to install and create schroot environments for disco and
bionic.  However, I am having troubles with sbuild (doesn't do what I
think it should) and attempts to fall back to my dpkg-buildpackage
standby doesn't work either.  Right now it complains about the locale
not being setup correctly.  Still scratching my head over that one.  One
web site said to install the equates in /etc/environment.  But that
didn't work inside the schroot environment.

I get a lot of these when running "fakeroot debian/rules clean".

perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
    LANGUAGE = "en_US.UTF-8",
    LC_ALL = "en_US.UTF-8",
    LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
    are supported and installed on your system.

Works fine when I'm not in an schroot environment.
