== HOWTO set up a porting dchroot on a debian.org machine ==
+The script 'upgrade-porter-chroots' has expectations about naming conventions
+for new porter chroots. The current list it searches for are:
+
+{{{
+lenny squeeze wheezy sid \
+lenny_i386 squeeze_i386 wheezy_i386 sid_i386 \
+lenny_amd64 squeeze_amd64 wheezy_amd64 sid_amd64 \
+sid_s390x \
+}}}
+
+Please make sure that new chroots meet the expectations of the script, or update
+the script accordingly (it lives in the debian.org.git repo)
+
+
+
This example is for setting up a $DIST dchroot on paer.debian.org,
adjust accordingly.
