I can somewhat emulate support for "Rules-Requires-Root: no" by setting
in ~/.sbuildrc:
$core_depends = [ 'build-essential:native' ];
$build_environment = { 'RULES_REQUIRES_ROOT' => 'no', };
Which results in fakeroot not being called, though it still ends up
calling dpkg with arguments to use fakeroot:
$ grep fakeroot ../u-boot_2019.10~rc4+dfsg-2~20190924~1_amd64.build
Command: dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -G -rfakeroot
But since fakeroot wasn't installed, I guess dpkg-buildpackage silently
ignored that option... or never tried to call fakeroot, since the
variables or other settings were set for Rules-Requires-Root?
Of course, it would be very nice if sbuild could just read the
Rules-Requires-Root setting an behave appropriately. :)
