quad-A9 VE porter machine we host in the datacenter). We got dchroots
instead:

Dchroot environments have been created on silverbell for both maverick
and natty. Within the chroot, you can sudo apt-get install to install
packages. apt-get update/dist-upgrade and installs that cause package
removal will require a GSA to do them.

To build for maverick: dchroot -c maverick (and then build however you want...)
