we've had some initial support for running lb with fakeroot/fakechroot
at some point, but then removed it because we hit too many bugs in the
process and it was too messy.
are you interested in getting that back? if so, patches welcome.
imho a much better/easier solution is to run the whole thing inside a
linux container, something that live-build should do at some point by
itself, but even then you'd require root (yes, unprivileged containers
are possible, but they are still buggy too).
