.SH NAME
faked \- daemon that remembers `fake' ownership/permissions of files
manipulated by fakeroot processes.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B faked
.B [\-\-debug] [\-\-foreground] [\-\-cleanup] [\-\-key
.IB msg-key ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
If a fakeroot process wants to change the ownership of a file, then
.B faked
is the process that remembers that new owner. If later the same
fakeroot process does a stat() for that filename, then the libfakeroot
wrapped stat() call will first ask faked for the `fake' ownership etc
of that file, and then report it.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-\-debug
Print debugging information on stderr.
.TP
.BI \-\-foreground
don't fork into the background.
.TP
.B \-\-cleanup \ number
cleanup the semafores.
.TP
.B \-\-key \ key-number
Don't allocate a new communication channel, but use chanel specified
by key. (If the specified chanel doesn't exist, it's created).
.SH BUGS
None so far. Be warned, though: although I've written quite a few much
larger (and smaller) programs, I've never written anything that was
as tiny as
.BR fakeroot ,
had as many bugs as
.BR fakeroot ,
and still was as usable as, say,
.BR fakeroot
version 0.0_3, the first version that could be used to build itself.
.SH COPYING
.B fakeroot
is distributed under the GNU General Public License.
(GPL 2.0 or greater).
