Package: pbuilder Version: 0.215 I run pbuilder builds in separate PID namespaces to get a bit of isolation from the rest of the system. Unfortantely when running multiple builds in parallel the paths clash because all pbuilder instances have the same pid and that pid is used to generate the build path.
A bit of hackish solution I came up with is to use mktemp in simulate mode to generate a random dirname for BUILDPLACE.
