Description: tool for simulating superuser privileges
- 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.
