buildPackage

    Do all the work of building the given package.
 
 

    Return '>0' on success, '0' on failure of any kind.  (The result is the
  number of binary files moved into the results directory.)
 
 

parseCommandLineArguments

   Parse any command line arguments, and set the appropriate values
  in the global CONFIG hash.
 
 

getSourcePackageName

   Return the name of the source package required to build package 'foo'
 
 

getPackageSource

   Download the source of the package to the specified directory
  and return the name of the unpacked directory.
 
 

updateChangeLog

   If the Debian changelog file doesn't already refer to the specified
  version then add it.
 
 

saveDebianPackage

   Move the build Debian package, associated .diff.gz file, .changes file,
  etc.  From the build directory into the binary directory.
 
 

   Return the number of files moved into the binary directory.
 
 

tidySystem

   Uninstall all the build dependency packages we installed.
 
 

   We do this by finding the list of all packages which are currently
  installed and removing those that were not present when we started.
 
 

getInstalledPackages

   Return a hash of all the currently installed packages.
 
 

installBuildDependencies

   Install the build-dependencies required to build the given package.

END

   Desperately try to reset the host system to the same starting point
  as it initially had.
 
 

   This should be taken care of in situations where the script doesn't
  abort on an error condition.
