Hi Scott,
It looks like the version of libcommoncpp2 you're trying to compile,
1.5.1, is available as a Debian package in unstable. Have you tried
building from that source package under stable? It may work, depending
upon whether or not the build-dependencies can be met in Sarge.
Even if trying to build under Sarge doesn't work, you could try looking
at the diff.gz [1] to see how the Debian maintainer solved this problem.
(He _must_ have solved it somehow, otherwise the package would FTBFS on
most of the buildds [2].)
I'm working from the assumption that your source tree, although
Debianized, is not the official Debian source package. If you *are*
building from the official Debian source package from unstable and this
happens anyway in your Sarge chroot, I have no idea.
[1]
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libc/libcommoncpp2/libcommoncpp2_1.5.1-4.diff.gz
[2] Not on alpha, mips, or mipsel, since IIRC fakeroot doesn't work
there and they actually build things using sudo.
Hope this helps,
