Rudimentary package build system for Debian Stable

swirlbuild is a thin layer between dh_make(1), pbuilder(8) and apt-ftparchive(1) to allow creating and building minimally viable Debian packages, without the usual paperwork and directory dance that comes with the official method. It also maintains a local (file:///) repository to install packages easily. Only Debian stable is supported.

swirlbuild totally integrates itself inside the Debian packages management system, and does not need a bootstrap, just some Debian packages installed and the swirlbuild tree.

It is heavily influenced by OpenBSD's ports collection, while some hints were taken from Alpine's Abuild and CRUX's ports.
