ubuntu-dev-tools is available in Debian.

In there there is handy pbuilder-dist, with which you can do:
pbuilder-dist raring create; pbuilder-dist raring build *.dsc

Or there is also mk-sbuild: mk-sbuild raring; sbuild -d raring *.dsc

So exactly like in Debian you don't need to run sid to build packages
for sid, same in Ubuntu you can run any OS (more or less) to build
packages for any Ubuntu release.
