I've always used an UML for this. I need to automate my workflow a bit more -- there are two parts of building packages; one set of operations run as root (build depends loading, and running piuparts), and another set which is run as a user running perhaps under fake root (the real build etc). I can use an @boot cron job to run stuff; but I have not done so since specifying SELinux policy for this is not gonna be fun (run as root in some security domain, and then start a dpkg-buildpackage as root in the usr_t domain), and I have been being lazy. I already have a shell version of satisfy_builddeps, so all I really need is to have the policy snippet, and I'll publish my building in a SELinux uml/kvm virtual machine thing. In my copious spare time, of course. manoj -- It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
