But I like this much better, anyway:

rulcmc:~/maintain/fakeroot/current$ ./fakeroot /bin/bash /bin/bash
rulcmc:~/maintain/fakeroot/fakeroot-0.1# ldd /usr/bin/uudecode 
        libfakeroot.so => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libfakeroot.so (0x4000b000)
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x40010000)
        libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 (0x400cc000)

This (the /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libfakeroot.so) actually means that
uudecode (the libc5 version) will actaully run too, using the libc5
library. (Notice I'm typing /bin/bash twice: that's a bug. That's
why I haven't released this version yet).


Or, what about this?

$ ./fakeroot -debug -nodename president -domainname whitehouse.gov -machine PPro -gid 3
Fakeroot is running with the following options:
  debug =  True
  fake-write =  False
  def-own-root =  True
  copy-on-setuid =  False
  debian-pedantic =  False
  uid = 0
  gid = 3
  sysname = Linux
  nodename = president
  osrelease = 2.0.31
  osvesion = #1 Sun Sep 7 12:35:17 CEST 1997
  machine = PPro
  domainname = whitehouse.gov


I hope the intend is clear: you'll be able to set whatever values you
want for the next "real" release of fakeroot (not the one
I'll release tonight to solve some people's problems with 
libc5 & fakeroot). And, the fake-write option should (in the end)
do what Christoph wanted (but somewhat differently).

PS. This way you don't have to see that Linux identifies my Cyrix "200+"
    as a i486.
PSS It's not quite working yet! No schedule!
