I have these keywords in the build buildFactory.addStep:

composepackages_buildFactory.addStep(
     shell.ShellCommand,
       command = [ 'bin/compose-package', 'chi-tests',
                   shell.WithProperties('%(branch)s-rev%(got_revision)s'),
                   compose_builddir ],
       timeout = compose_timeout,
       description = ['composing', 'chi-tests'],
       descriptionDone = ['composed', 'chi-tests']
)

Maybe that would help you?
