NAME
       faked  -	 daemon	that remembers fake ownership/permissions of files ma-
       nipulated by fakeroot processes.

SYNOPSIS
       faked [--debug] [--foreground]  [--cleanup]  [--key  msg-key]  [--load]
       [--save-file save-file] [--port TCP-port]

DESCRIPTION
       If  a  fakeroot	process	 wants to change the ownership of a file, then
       faked is	the process that remembers that	new owner.  If later the  same
       fakeroot	 process does a	stat() for that	filename, then the libfakeroot
       wrapped stat() call will	first ask faked	for the	fake ownership etc. of
       that file, and then report it.

OPTIONS
       --debug
	      Print debugging information on stderr.

       --foreground
	      Don't fork into the background.

       --cleanup number
	      Cleanup the semaphores.

       --key key-number
	      Don't allocate a new  communication  channel,  but  use  channel
	      specified	by key.	 (If the specified channel doesn't exist, it's
	      created).

       --save-file save-file
	      Save the environment to save-file	on exit.

       --load Load a previously	saved environment from the standard input.

       --unknown-is-real
	      Use  real	 ownership of previously-unknown files instead of set-
	      ting them	to root:root.

       --port tcp-port
	      Use TCP port tcp-port.

BUGS
       None so far.  Be	warned,	though:	although I've written quite a few much
       larger (and smaller) programs, I've never written anything that was  as
       tiny as fakeroot, had as	many bugs as fakeroot, and still was as	usable
       as,  say,  fakeroot version 0.0_3, the first version that could be used
       to build	itself.

COPYING
       fakeroot	is distributed under the GNU General Public License.  (GPL 2.0
       or greater).
