Binary package hint: ubuntu-dev-tools

Trying to build and i386 chroot I get the following error:

$ pbuilder-dist lucid i386 create
W: /home/ciemon/.pbuilderrc does not exist
I: Logging to /home/ciemon/pbuilder/lucid-i386_result/last_operation.log
I: Distribution is lucid.
I: Building the build environment
I: running qemu-debootstrap
E: qemu-debootstrap does not exist, install or change DEBOOTSTRAP option
W: Aborting with an error
I: cleaning the build env
I: removing directory /var/cache/pbuilder/build//8153 and its subdirectories

as a work around installing qemu-kvm-extras-static enables the chroot to be built
