Yeah, so it looks like in log/sid-amd64 I see the following over and over again:

  forking: rm -rf /var/cache/pbuilder/base-sid-amd64.cow 
 -> Invoking pbuilder
  forking: pbuilder create --buildplace /var/cache/pbuilder/base-sid-amd64.cow --mirror http://us-west-2.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ --architecture amd64 --distribution sid --no-targz --extrapackages cowdancer 
W: /root/.pbuilderrc does not exist
I: Running in no-targz mode
I: Distribution is sid.
I: Building the build environment
I: running debootstrap
/usr/sbin/debootstrap
I: Retrieving Release
E: Failed getting release file http://us-west-2.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/sid/Release

I am trying to tweak mod_spandsp in master and deb package the code for use in my application.

I'm running "./debian/util.sh build-all -ibn -z9 -f /tmp/modules.conf" but it consistently gets stuck at "Building sid-amd64 debs.." 

First off, I'm not sure if this is the correct way to package custom changes, but also why is the debian build stuck at this step?

Thanks!
