Comment (by gk):

 There is a pending pull request (https://github.com/defreez/gitian-
 builder/commit/7ad593397283b07a9006613e16ec95974c724465) that allows to
 basically get rid of the vmbuilder dependency when using LXC. We should
 look into that and get it running for TBBs and then we can close this
 ticket. There is no need to get all ways of building TBB independent from
 Ubuntu. (That said, using Gentoo + KVM should work as well.)
