I'm afraid we don't have sensible docs for this yet.
https://dev.launchpad.net/Soyuz/HowToUseSoyuzLocally#Set_up_a_builder
and
https://dev.launchpad.net/Soyuz/HowToUseSoyuzLocally#Drive_builder_through_rpc
(but not necessarily the other sections of that page) are sort of part
of it but probably not sufficient to run through the whole process. We
need to document this more clearly but it's not done yet.

There's a manual process to update chroots to new livefs builds, which I
executed for xenial on 2019-09-05. That was the first time that this
version of the process had been run for xenial; before that, the chroots
were hand-crafted. As such, you're not really going to get anything
interesting out of trying to correlate with archive changes in this
case.

Thanks for the verification. util-linux builds cleanly here with an
updated chroot, so I agree.
