I just ran into this after updating to 12.04. There's no real docs on
how to use backportpackage as a replacement for prevu, I think this
should've been done at least on the Ubuntu wiki before completely
removing prevu.

I'd expect docs to contain steps on:
- setting up a build chroot
- configuring which GPG key to use, or disabling package signing
- building packported packages into a local backport repo
- adding local backport repo to apt sources

All of this was well automated by prevu and required very little user
intervention. Docs to replace all of this with backportpackage
equivalents are needed.
