Package: mbr
Version: 1.1.10-2
Severity: serious
Hi Santiago,
I've tried to rebuild mbr for Univention Corporate Server, a Debian derived
distribution based on Debian stable (currently Lenny, our next release will
be based on Squeeze).
The stable version of mbr fails to build from source:
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jmm/mbr-1.1.10'

When googling for the error cause I noticed that similar
build failures were spotted in Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mbr/+bug/765979
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mbr/+bug/445643
The test suite passes if mbr is build as root.
I tried the version from unstable, which builds fine when
building as a standard user.
I've filed this with RC severity, since there is at least one
person triaging stable RC bugs.
Cheers,
Moritz

Confirmed. I'm marking the current sid/testing version as fixed.

I've applied the attached fix to our build. I'll attach it here for reference
in case anyone encounters the same problem or wants to fix this in a point
update.
Cheers,

Running the full test suite fails when building as a standard user since some
syscalls are restricted to root-equivalent capabilities when running recent
kernels.
