You're under a mis-apprehension here - that John has a rebuild script.
Check the website - the steps he uses are on there - but they're not in an
easily scriptable state, and for many packages, he has to run through and
find out *WHY* they won't build, and either track down the unlisted
dependency, resolve version mismatches, or even just determine that *THIS*
silly package wants to be built as a user (or even some *PARTICULAR*
user), rather than as root.
Let me repeat here - John does *NOT* have a magic script doing this for
him.
