Package: piuparts
Version: 0.15-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

        I use user mode linux machines to build my packages. It
 already has an up to date file system in the virtual machine, which can
 be loop mounted.  It would be nice if I did not have to maintain a
 separate piuparts chroot system. I am unsure if there is a nice way
 to actually fire up the virtual machine to do what piuparts does --
 but one can make the base root filesystem for the UML read-only, and
 have a copy-on-write overlay. Then once and use cow-utils to do the
 checking.

        Sorry for the slightly incoherent wishlist
