πŸ’– debuild-pbuilder πŸ’–

okay so this is the debuild-pbuilder page from the pbuilder manual, bestie, and it's short but it's mighty. no cap.


✨ NAME ✨

debuild-pbuilder β€” a debuild wrapper that handles your build-dependency situation before debuild even gets on stage. it's giving personal assistant energy fr fr. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

debuild-pbuilder

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no args, no flags, just send it. 🫢


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea: this is a wrapper around the debuild program, and what it does is Build-Dependency satisfaction. that's literally its whole personality. it makes sure all the build-deps are happy and settled first, and only then does it hand things off to debuild.

no more crying about missing build-deps mid-build. we love a supportive bestie. πŸ˜­πŸ’–


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

bestie. there are no options here. like, none. zero. the option list is empty and honestly that's iconic of it.

go read the debuild manpage for details if you're craving flags. this wrapper is not the one serving them. πŸ‘‘

⭐ EXAMPLES ⭐

debuild-pbuilder

satisfy your build-dependencies and then run debuild. that's the whole job description, and it executes it flawlessly. πŸ’œ

$ debuild-pbuilder
 -> Attempting to satisfy build-dependencies
 -> Creating pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy package
Package: pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy
Version: 0.invalid.0
     .
     .

see those -> lines? that's it doing the build-dependency satisfaction thing in real time. the pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy package with version 0.invalid.0 is the little scaffolding situation it cooks up to make it all work. the . . at the bottom means the output keeps going, it just didn't want to type it all out. relatable honestly. πŸ™ˆ
