+Package: fakeroot-doc
+Architecture: all
+Depends: fakeroot
+Description: tool for simulating superuser privileges - documentation
+ fakeroot provides a fake "root environment" by means of LD_PRELOAD and SysV IPC
+ (or TCP) trickery. It puts wrappers around getuid(), chown(), stat(), and other
+ file-manipulation functions, so that unprivileged users can (for instance)
+ populate .opk archives with root-owned files; various build tools use fakeroot
+ for this by default.
+ .
+ This package provides manual pages for the fakeroot tool.
