ci: install build-essential in the publish job

cargo publish verifies the packaged tarball with a full build before
uploading, and that build needs a C linker for build-script crates
(proc-macro2 was the first to fail). The job's container setup step
omitted build-essential, unlike the build and test jobs, so the
verification failed with 'linker cc not found' on the v0.1.0 tag.

+Conventions for working in this tree. They apply to every commit; the
+whole history follows them.
+
+## Before every commit
+
+Run, in order, and make sure they are clean before committing:
+
+```sh
+cargo fmt --all
+cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features   # zero warnings
+```
+
+CI builds and lints with `RUSTFLAGS: -Dwarnings`, so a `cargo build`
+warning fails the gate too. `cargo fmt` may amend files you did not
+touch — include those changes in the commit (or in a separate `fmt:`
+commit) rather than leaving the tree dirty.
+
+The test suite is heavy (chroots, ssh, network): always run the
+`#[cfg(test)]` modules of what you touch, and the full suite when
+changing shared plumbing (`report`, `logfmt`, `test_support`,
+`debian/`). Tests marked `#[ignore]` shell out or hit the network and
+are for deliberate ad-hoc runs (`cargo test -- --ignored`), not for the
+pre-commit pass. Building needs the gpgme/openssl system packages
+(`pkg-config libssl-dev libgpg-error-dev libgpgme-dev`).
+
+## Commit messages
+
+There are no conventional-commit types; the format is a component scope
+and a summary:
+
+```
+<scope>: <short summary>
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- The scope is the component touched — the module under `src/` (file or
+  directory), named after the user-facing subcommand when that differs:
+  - `pull` — source package download (`src/pull.rs`)
+  - `chlog` — changelog entry generation (`src/changelog.rs`)
+  - `build` — source package builds, .dsc (`src/build/`)
+  - `deb` — binary package builds, .deb (`src/deb/`)
+  - `put` — PPA/archive upload (`src/put/`)
+  - `new` — package scaffolding (`src/new/`)
+  - `lint` — tree linting (`src/lint/`)
+  - `prune`, `package_info` — remaining subcommand modules
+  - `context` — build contexts: local, ssh, chroot/schroot, unshare
+    (`src/context/`)
+  - `interrupt` — Ctrl+C interception and interrupt-time cleanup
+    (`src/interrupt.rs`)
+  - `debian` — Debian format primitives: control, versions, checksums,
+    arch (`src/debian/`)
+  - `apt`, `launchpad`, `distro_info`, `quirks` — archive/distro
+    integration
+  - `report` — BuildView/Prompter ports and the views implementing them
+  - `ui`, `logfmt` — terminal rendering and output classification
+  - `data` — the `data/*.yml` embed convention itself; content changes
+    to a data file belong to the commit of the module consuming it
+  - `cli` — the binary, argument wiring (`src/main.rs`)
+  - `test` — test-only changes (shared plumbing: `src/test_support.rs`)
+  - `deps` — dependency additions/bumps (manifests, lockfile)
+  - `fmt`, `clippy` — rustfmt/clippy fixups
+  - `ci`, `snap`, `docs` — workflows, snap packaging, README
+- Use the submodule path when the change is confined to one
+  (`apt/keyring`, `debian/version`).
+- A commit touching several components should be split into one commit
+  per component when practical; otherwise comma-join the scopes without
+  spaces (`pull,deb`).
+- Summary: imperative mood, lowercase first letter (proper nouns keep
+  theirs: Ubuntu, SRU, lintian), no trailing period, max ~72 characters.
+- Body (expected for anything nontrivial): separated by a blank line,
+  wrapped at 72 columns; explain why, and the design when the approach
+  was a choice among alternatives. Reference issues as `#123`.
+- Reverts use git's default `Revert "<original subject>"`.
+
+### Examples
+
+```
+chlog: fall back to the changelog history when no version tag exists
+ui: ellipsize fake-terminal pane lines wider than the terminal
+lint: add pkh lint, wrapping lintian for parity plus pkh-native checks
+chlog: number Ubuntu backports with the per-release SRU scheme
+deb: resolve cross pkg-config against the target multiarch
+pull,deb: add top-level --pocket option
+debian/version: dpkg-compatible version comparison
+deps: bump git2 to 0.21
+fmt: apply rustfmt
+docs: refresh the README roadmap for 1.0
+```
+
+## Code
+
+- The crate denies missing docs (`#![deny(missing_docs)]` in
+  `src/lib.rs`): every public item carries a doc comment, and the module
+  list there is the layout map — keep it in sync when adding a module.
+- Subcommand business logic lives in the library and reports through the
+  `report` ports (`BuildView`, `Prompter`) instead of printing;
+  `src/main.rs` is argument wiring only. Subprocess output
+  classification is pure logic in `logfmt`, testable without a pty.
+- Static reference data (series tables, keyserver URLs, licenses,
+  forges, templates) lives in `data/*.yml`, embedded with the
+  `embed_data!` macro — not in hardcoded tables.
+- Comments state constraints the code cannot show; no narration.
+- Anything user-facing (subcommands, flags, option defaults) is
+  reflected in `README.md` — including its roadmap checklists — before
+  commit.

+                       Version 2, June 1991
+
+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
+ <https://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+                            Preamble
+
+  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
+using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
+the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
+rights.
+
+  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
+authors' reputations.
+
+  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
+program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+along with the Program.
+
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
+
+  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+    parties under the terms of this License.
+
+    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
+    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
+    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
+    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
+    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
+    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
+    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
+    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
+    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Program.
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+the scope of this License.
+
+  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
+
+    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
+    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
+    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
+    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+    customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
+    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
+    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+    received the program in object code or executable form with such
+    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+itself accompanies the executable.
+
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+
+  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Program or works based on it.
+
+  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
+these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
+this License.
+
+  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+circumstances.
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+impose that choice.
+
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+
+  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
+countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
+the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
+
+  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
+Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
+Foundation.
+
+  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
+to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
+make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
+
+                            NO WARRANTY
+
+  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
+REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
+REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
+OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
+TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
+YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
+PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
+    with this program; if not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
+when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
+    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
+necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
+
+  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
+  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
+
+  <signature of Moe Ghoul>, 1 April 1989
+  Moe Ghoul, President of Vice
+
+This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
+proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
+consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
+library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
+Public License instead of this License.

 `pkh` is a packaging helper for Debian/Ubuntu packages.
 
+![](.github/pkh.gif)
+
+## Installation
+
+No distribution channel is published yet; build from source:
+
+```
+sudo apt install pkg-config libssl-dev libgpg-error-dev libgpgme-dev
+git clone https://git.vhaudiquet.fr/vhaudiquet/pkh.git
+cd pkh
+cargo install --path .
+```
+
+At runtime pkh shells out to the Debian packaging toolchain (git,

+name: pkh
+description: 'Drive pkh, a Debian/Ubuntu packaging helper: pull source packages, generate changelog entries, build .dsc/.deb, lint, and upload to a PPA. Use it whenever the task touches Debian or Ubuntu packaging: patching an existing package, preparing an SRU, backport or NMU, scaffolding a new .deb, rebuilding for a PPA, or uploading a source package. Trigger on "update the changelog", "package this", or a bare package name, even when the user never mentions Debian.'
+---
+
+# pkh
+
+`pkh` wraps the Debian packaging toolchain (`dch`, `dpkg-buildpackage`,
+`sbuild`, `dpkg-source`, `quilt`, `lintian`, PPA uploads) in one CLI.
+The subcommands share one set of option names, so `-s` always targets
+the series and `--ppa` always names the PPA. Each step also does more
+than the raw tool it replaces: `pull` fetches the orig tarball with the
+source, `chlog` commits the entry it writes, `deb` sets up a chroot and
+installs the build dependencies.
+
+Check the install with `pkh --version`. Each command lists its flags
+with `pkh <command> --help`, so check there instead of guessing. pkh
+shells out to host tools (git, dpkg-dev, quilt, mmdebstrap, lintian,
+pristine-tar, schroot, ...). Install the ones your workflow uses, or
+use the classic snap, which carries them.
+
+## Shared options
+
+| Option | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `-d, --dist <dist>` | Target distribution, `debian` or `ubuntu` |
+| `-s, --series <series>` | Target series, for example `resolute` or `noble` |
+| `-v, --version <version>` | Target package version |
+| `-a, --arch <arch>` | Target architecture, for example `amd64` or `riscv64` |
+| `-p, --pocket <pocket>` | Distribution pocket: `updates`, `security`, `proposed` |
+| `--ppa <user/ppa>` | Act on the named PPA |
+
+Defaults come from the host vendor, its development series, and its
+architecture. When the target differs, pass the flags: packaging for
+Ubuntu on a Debian host needs `-d ubuntu`, and a series or architecture
+that differs from the host needs `-s` or `-a`.
+
+## Patch an Ubuntu package
+
+```
+pkh pull hello                     # source and orig tarball; add -d ubuntu off an Ubuntu host
+# edit the package, committing each patch to git
+pkh chlog                          # generates the entry, opens it for editing, commits it
+git add debian/changelog && git commit -m "d/changelog"
+pkh build                          # source package, written next to the tree
+pkh deb                            # binary build in a chroot with build deps installed
+pkh lint                           # lintian plus pkh-native checks
+pkh put --ppa user/hello_xxx       # uploads the .changes file from the build
+git push xxx user-fork             # push the branch to your fork
+```
+
+Run `pkh chlog` and `pkh build` from the root of the source tree; they
+act on the package in the current directory.
+
+## Command reference
+
+- `pkh new [name]` scaffolds a buildable source package. `--lang`
+  picks the build system (`rust`, `python`, `meson`, `cmake`,
+  `autotools`, `go`, `shell`, `makefile`); `--source <PATH>` packages
+  existing sources instead. `--upstream-version` and `--revision` set
+  the version. `--description`, `--homepage`, `--license <SPDX>`,
+  `--command`, `--maintainer "Name <email>"`, and `--depends` fill in
+  the package metadata, with the maintainer defaulting to
+  `DEBFULLNAME`/`DEBEMAIL` and then git config. `--quilt` and
+  `--native` choose the source format; `--orig-from
+  release|git|path|snapshot` and `--orig-path` control the orig
+  tarball. The changelog starts as `UNRELEASED`; `--release` targets
+  `--series` instead. `--defaults` answers every remaining question
+  with its default, which keeps the run non-interactive.
+
+- `pkh pull <package>` fetches a source package from the archive or
+  git. `--archive` skips git. `--ppa user/ppa` and `--repository
+  <suite-url>` pull from a PPA or an external flat repository instead.
+  `-d`, `-s`, `-v`, and `-p` target an exact source.
+
+- `pkh chlog` generates the changelog entry from the commits since the
+  last version tag, opens it for editing, and commits it. `--backport`,
+  `--nmu`, and `--rebuild` apply the matching numbering scheme
+  (`3.1-1ubuntu2~24.04.1`, `1.0-1.1`, `1.0-1build1`); `-v` sets an
+  explicit version instead.
+
+- `pkh build` produces the .dsc. `--orig auto|always|never` controls
+  whether the upload includes the orig tarball; the default, `auto`,
+  includes it only when the upstream version changed.
+
+- `pkh deb` builds the binary packages in an isolated context with the
+  build dependencies installed. `--ppa` (repeatable) adds dependency
+  sources, `--inject <package|.deb>` preinstalls a package, and `-j`
+  caps parallel jobs. `--cross` cross-compiles instead of using
+  qemu-binfmt, but most packages cannot cross-compile, so prefer qemu.
+  Leave `--mode` unset unless you need a specific build context.
+
+- `pkh lint [path]` runs lintian plus the pkh-native checks. `--json`
+  emits a machine-readable report and `--list-tags` prints the native
+  tag catalog. `--fail-on` sets the severities that fail the run
+  (errors by default), `--suppress-tags` ignores tags, `--check` runs a
+  single native check, and `--info`, `--pedantic`, and
+  `--experimental` add detail. `--repack` packs the tree fresh instead
+  of reusing the existing build output.
+
+- `pkh put [changes]` uploads a .changes file to `--ppa user/ppa`.
+  With no argument it uploads the .changes from this package's last
+  build, found next to the source tree. `--force` re-uploads a file
+  that was already uploaded.
+
+- `pkh prune` removes build artifacts and caches. Run it with
+  `--dry-run` first to list them. `--all` also deletes the cached
+  chroot tarballs, which take long to download again, so use it when
+  you need the disk space.
+
+## Notes for agent runs
+
+- Pass `-d`, `-s`, and `-a` whenever the target differs from the host,
+  so runs are reproducible.
+- Keep runs non-interactive. Pass explicit flags, use `pkh new
+  --defaults`, and set `EDITOR` before `pkh chlog` (`EDITOR=true` keeps
+  the generated text). Commands may ask short questions on the
+  terminal; flags avoid most prompts.
+- Pass `RUST_LOG=debug` for pkh's own logs. `--verbose` on `pkh build`
+  and `pkh deb` prints raw tool output instead of the live view.
+- pkh writes the build artifacts (.dsc, .changes, logs) next to the
+  source tree. `pkh put` finds them without arguments, and `pkh prune`
+  removes them again.
+- Run `pkh lint` before `pkh put`. It exits nonzero when findings reach
+  the `--fail-on` level, which defaults to errors.
+- pkh intercepts Ctrl+C, runs its cleanup hooks, and exits with status
+  130. `pkh prune` removes anything left over.
+
+The upstream repository is https://git.vhaudiquet.fr/vhaudiquet/pkh.
+Its README has longer workflow examples.

+//! is *not* authoritative: lintian uses 2 both for "fail-on met" and for

+//! view, a headless library consumer, or a remote frontend (e.g. a builder
+//! server forwarding build events to a web UI over server-sent events): every
+//! event carries plain data — strings, numbers, paths — with no terminal,
+//! styling or locale assumptions. Adapters decide how events reach the user:
+//! the terminal live view ([`crate::ui::deb::DebUi`]) renders them in place,
+//! while another embedding maps each method onto its own wire format.
+//!
+//! Every [`BuildView`] method defaults to doing nothing, so implementations
+//! only override the events they care about; [`Quiet`] provides the inert
+//! implementations used by headless runs and tests. [`Prompter`] is
+//! deliberately blocking: an implementation may round-trip each question to
+//! a remote user, as long as it eventually answers (or takes the default).
+//! Asking can fail (the user cancels, the connection drops); flows
+//! propagate the error, which aborts them.
