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 .deb archives with root-owned files;
 various build tools use fakeroot for this by default.
Description-fr: outil de simulation des privilèges superutilisateur
 Le programme fakeroot fournit un environnement root factice en trompant
 LD_PRELOAD et
 SysV IPC (ou TCP). Il ajoute un enrobage autour de getuid(), chown(),
 stats() et d'autres fonctions de manipulations de fichiers. Ainsi, des
 utilisateurs non privilégiés peuvent, par exemple, construire une archive
 .deb avec des fichiers appartenant à root. De nombreux outils de
 construction utilisent fakeroot pour cela par défaut.
