-The previous description is rather compact and dense, so let's try to describe the usage in more friendly way.
+When logging into Debian porterbox machine:
* List available chroots:
-
+
$ schroot -l
+
* Begin a persistent schroot session on Debian unstable:
-
- $ schroot -b -c sid -n mysid
+
+ # Pick your own session name:
+ $ echo -n "Session ID: " && read sessionid && schroot -b -c sid -n $sessionid
+ # or use a random one:
+ $ sessionid=$(schroot -b -c sid)
+
* Update and upgrade Debian unstable chroot:
-
- $ dd-schroot-cmd -c mysid apt-get update
- $ dd-schroot-cmd -c mysid apt-get upgrade
+
+ $ dd-schroot-cmd -c $sessionid apt-get update
+ $ dd-schroot-cmd -c $sessionid apt-get upgrade

* Change root to Debian unstable chroot:

-* Download your broken package source:
-
- (sid_arch-dchroot)user@porterbox:~$ apt-get source gentoo
+* Download your source:
+
+ (sid_arch-dchroot)user@porterbox:~$ apt-get source hello
+
* You should be able to reproduce your issue, hack on the package, fix the bug. Once you are done with your work, please, finish your schroot session:
-
+
(sid_arch-dchroot)user@porterbox:~$ exit
- $ schroot -e -c mysid
+ $ schroot -e -c $sessionid

+* List your currently open sessions:

+* List all currently open sessions:

* You should be done by now. If you find any issue, please report to debian-admin@lists.debian.org.
