You can get the (extremely preliminary) sources from SVN on http://sf.net/projects/fakerootng. Fakeroot-ng aims to achieve the same goal as fakeroot and fakechroot, except it uses the ptrace interface rather than the LD_PRELOAD interface, which, as you can see, has lots and lots of problems with non-standard applications. Fakeroot-ng is extremely far from being complete at the moment, but if you will find it useful, then I can use the extra programming skills. Shachar
