I'm a GetDeb contributor, building Ubuntu packages of new applications. The build system I use is CowBuilder (pbuilder/cowdancer) plus CCache to speedup the process.
Following is a simple guide to setup such an environment on an Ubuntu system.
EXTRAPACKAGES=ccache BINDMOUNTS="${CCACHE_DIR}"Create CCache directory (user 1234 is default inside cowbuilder): sudo mkdir /var/cache/pbuilder/ccache sudo chown 1234 /var/cache/pbuilder/ccacheCreate the build environment: sudo cowbuilder --create --distribution feistyAfter the (rather long) download and install procedure you can start compiling your own packages like this: sudo cowbuilder --build flv2mpeg4_0+svn3-1~getdeb1.dsc The resulting package can be found in /var/cache/pbuilder/result/
"CowBuilder + CCache"
