Bug#572111: fakechroot's setuid lib might not be necessary any more

thanks

Indeed the latest Ubuntu and Debian doesn't require fake fakechroot library,
so it will be removed completly from package.
Already applied to the launchpad's fakechroot repository.

Thanks!

 Package: fakechroot
 Severity: normal

 It's possible that the setuid lib supplied by fakechroot is no longer
 needed.  The corresponding arrangement in fakeroot was removed back in
 2007, since it is apparently not needed any more.
