 [http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/software/pbuilder-doc/pbuilder-doc.html
 pbuilder] is a tool to make sure that your build is not using any Debian
 packages other than the packages specified in your debian control file.

 By using pbuilder on our Debian buildslaves we can be sure that any
 regressions in the Debian build will be detected. For example, if we
 change our Python source code to start depending on a library but we
 forget to add that library to the {{{debian/control}}} file (such as we
 recently did with {{{pyasn1}}} (#1095)), then the pbuilder-powered build
 step will go red.
