[Piuparts-devel] Bug#664727: piuparts: Please support cowbuilder in addition to pbuilder

[Roland Mas]

Package: piuparts
Version: 0.43
Severity: wishlist

It would be great if piuparts could use the cowbuilder snapshots as
starting points, as an alternative to the pbuilder images.  This would
probably make it faster for those of us with aging hardware :-)

I guess this is similar to #530733.  Maybe a common infrastructure could
handle schroot, pbuilder, cowbuilder, and potentially other incarnations
of the same concept, such as lvmbuilder or qemubuilder.
