Hello everyone

We're having a problem with pbuilder and I wonder if anyone is experiencing the same thing, or if we're misunderstanding how this is supposed to work.

We have pbuilder set up on a test server, and we've run all these commands: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Building_Debian_Packages_-_The_Easy_Way#Enter_pbuilder

Then we set off a pipeline in Gitlab, which essentially just runs ./debian/build-git-snapshot to build our Koha package.

We've noticed that we are being required to log into pbuilder and run those commands from the wiki page before every package build/pipeline.

Is that expected? We would've thought that the commands only have to be run once and the environment is then saved in base.tgz and used.

Has anyone else experienced this and know how to fix?
