What do you like best about SBuild?

The part I need SBuild for most is its capacity to prepare Debian packages meticulously. It makes an environment where listed (chroot) is isolated for assembling of packages and minimum conflicts take place with clean package creation. This amounts to an appreciable asset in the steadiness of the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SBuild?

You'll face SBuild with some learning necessary. Knowledge of the Linux package management systems like dpkg and apt is a must to set up lxc properly. Although the documentation is comprehensive, it is overly technical and logic will be hard for a beginner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SBuild solving and how is that benefiting you?

SBuild brings me the ability of customizing Debian package configuration to support my individual software requirement. It gives me an opportunity to work on small tasks and modify software settings precisely so that the software works without any issues for me. It becomes highly relevant for in-house built application running as well as respecting the legacy, immutable software in a modern Debian environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
