Re: Built shadow things (and some glibc bits)

There is a sudo package available. Maybe fakeroot will build now that

Building is half the battle, on powerpc and sparc (also glibc-pre2.1
architectures), fakeroot is known to be a bit messed up; it seems to work,
but it leaves processes around (which will only die on a SIGKILL) which
suck large amounts of CPU.
BTW, I am currently working on glibc 2.0.96, and I'm wondering if I should
add arm to the "HAS_LIBC5" variable (this is currently used for some
conditionals, the first (depending on whether $HAS_LIBC contains the
current architecture as a component) is whether or not a pre-depends on
ldso (for the libc5 ld.so (ld-linux.so.1) and libc5-supporting ldd) is
necessary, the second (depending on whether $HAS_LIBC contains the current
architecture as a component) builds and installs ldconfig and ldd from the
glibc sources.
