Package: qemu
Version: 0.9.0-1netsweng4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Admitedly, this one is a bit ugly since it involves making qemu be setuid root,
but with this fix, fakeroot will work inside of a chroot of another
architecture.
With this, I can use sbuild on top of a chroot of another architecture to build
packages for that architecture (ie arm on x86_64). This setup is similar to
http://wiki.debian.org/QemuUserEmulation, but does not need the dpkg-cross
stuff.
