Description-en: Daemon for automatically building Debian binary packages from Debian sources
The sbuild suite of programs (buildd and sbuild) are
used to build binary packages from source packages. The wanna-build
database tracks packages which require building; buildd schedules
work from information it gets from the wanna-build database; sbuild
does the actual package building.
.
buildd is a daemon which will build Debian packages automatically
using the wanna-build database to identify which packages need to be
built. Note that the wanna-build database is not packaged, and
requires installing separately.
