30/08/2019: Removal of fakeroot
The fakeroot
package is no longer used by the package manager. Instead
each package is built and archived with the ownership of whatever user
ran the package manager.
On installation of a package the files are then installed with the
ownership set to root:root
achieving the same behavior in the end as
fakeroot
.
fakeroot
is a nasty hack and adds quite a lot of overhead to builds. I
am now able to rebuild GCC in only 10 minutes!
