You did not specify the pbuilder --mirror option with the URL to the
Ubuntu mirror.

http://manpages.debian.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pbuilder

Since you're need to enable the ubuntugis-unstable PPA in the chroot,
your should name it accordingly (e.g. base-wily-ubuntugis.cow) to
differentiate it from the a plain Ubuntu wily chroot (without PPAs).

Kind Regards,

Bas
