Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

pbuilder constructs a chroot system, and builds a package inside the chroot. It uses apt extensively, and a local mirror, or a fast connection to a Debian/Ubuntu mirror is ideal, but not necessary. "pbuilder create" uses debootstrap to create a chroot image. "pbuilder update" updates the image to the current state of testing/unstable/whatever "pbuilder build" takes a *.dsc file and builds a binary in the chroot image. pdebuild is a wrapper for developers, to allow running pbuilder just like "debuild", as a normal user.

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
