How about I help you simplify a bit instead? :-)

You need not work on a host running Debian: You can create and use a 
Debian Sid chroot on your laptop.  Off course if you deliberately want 
to use a different (faster?) machine as build host it might make sense 
anyway (but if you - like me - like the freedom of working while 
travelling, you might want to instead look into ccontrol and distcc, 
building locally but optionally off-loading compilations to that faster 
machine - while keeping a local cache of its results).

What I point out is just that you need to do more of your work inside a 
chroot.

Oh. Someone (me, probably :-) ) already did this some time ago, 
apparently.

Sorry for the noise about that, then.
