Getting sbuild up and running in Raspbian can be a tricky process. This article will describe the process from start to finish.
Brotli is a new compression algorithm being introduced by Google. It’s gaining traction very quickly - there’s an IETF draft proposal for the data format. There are even plans to include Brotli as an accepted Content-Encoding in Firefox 44:

Due to the nature of the library, it was important that the test suite run on as many different platforms and compilers as possible. After some research, I came to the conclusion that BuildBot was the ideal tool for the job.
