PGP and fakeroot



To build sendmail, I used: "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" from my 
normal id (cowboy).

Everything seemed to go fine except for a few items:
  1) Needing root to rm debian/tmp  (everthing was owned by cowboy.cowboy)
  2) PGP expected to find my {sec/pub}ring.pgp in / (instead of 
     cowboy/.pgp/{sec/pub}ring.pgp)

Are these prompts normal?  I expected to be prompted for my passphrase,
but the other prompts took me by surprise.

Thanks,
