Even better, 'make-kpkg --rootcmd=fakeroot ...' This will only run the things that need to be run under fakeroot under fakeroot, in principle. In reality, under woody, if you're building add-on modules, you still need 'fakeroot make-kpkg modules-image'; under sid, many, but not all, of the modules DTRT with --fakeroot. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
