| Description | Gives a fake root environment. |
|---|
| This package is intended to enable something like:
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
i.e. to remove the need to become root for a package build.
This is done by setting LD_PRELOAD to libfakeroot.so,
which provides wrappers around getuid, chown, chmod, mknod,
stat, ..., thereby creating a fake root environment.
.
If you don't understand any of this, you do not need fakeroot!
