There certainly are a few things like disabling network access during build or seccomp filters which schroot in Debian cannot yet do (see also #802849). But before re-implementing all the package building logic that already exists in pbuilder and sbuild, could we maybe evaluate whether it is feasible to extend the existing tools with a new backend? Especially when added as an autopkgtest-virt server, such work would benefit a much bigger crowd than yet another [1,2] package building software. I would certainly appreciate a bug against sbuild that adds functionality that sbuild does not yet have. Thanks! cheers, josch [1] https://lists.debian.org/4340a82e-15fc-1518-122a-c49273da1...@metux.net [2] https://lists.debian.org/87lhiduele@desiato.home.uhoreg.ca signature.asc Description: signature

Bug#892612: ITP: conbuilder -- container-basade package builder for Debian packages
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Federico Ceratto * Package name: conbuilder Version : 0.0.1 Upstream Author : Federico Ceratto * URL : https://salsa.debian.org/federico/conbuilder * License : GPLv3 Programming Lang: Python Description : container-basade package builder for Debian packages Build Debian packages using OverlayFS and systemd namespace containers. conbuilder creates a base filesystem using debootstrap, then overlays it with a filesystem to install the required dependencies and finally runs the build on another overlay. Layers are created, reused and purged automatically to achieve fast package builds while minimizing disk usage. It takes less than 2 seconds to start a new build on an already existing overlay. conbuilder also allows to selectively disable networking, capabilities and filter system calls using seccomp. The packaging will be hosted at [1] as a native package. [1] https://salsa.debian.org/federico/conbuilder
