Create PureOS pBuilder Environment

This page explains how to set up a PureOS pBuilder environment.

On PureOS

Everything you need is already pre-configured, you just need to install pbuilder:

sudo apt install pbuilder debootstrap devscripts

Then create a pBuilder environment

sudo pbuilder create --distribution amber --debootstrapopts --variant=buildd

Other Debian-based distros

If you are not on a PureOS distribution, but on Debian or a derivative (e.g. Ubuntu), do:

1. Download & install the debootstrap package from PureOS
2. Download & install the PureOS archive keyring package.

sudo apt install pbuilder devscripts

Create the pBuilder environment

sudo pbuilder create --distribution amber --debootstrapopts --variant=buildd --mirror http://repo.puri.sm/pureos --debootstrapopts "--keyring=/usr/share/keyrings/pureos-archive-keyring.gpg"

And that's it, you should have a working PureOS pBuilder environment now!
