I would like to backport the latest fakeroot and (especially)
fakechroot from Rawhide into EPEL 5, because I'm trying to add some
packages to EPEL which depend on them.

(CC'd to the package maintainer)

  http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/devel/fakeroot/
  http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/devel/fakechroot/

Dependent packages are:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=febootstrap#c17
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=libguestfs#c21

Does anyone have any objections?  As far as I can tell, the only
changes should be feature enhancements.  However as these are quite
complex packages, it is always possible there might have been some
regressions.

Rich.
