Hi, The Debian build system makes it very tempting to build as fakeroot: basically, one has a choice of debian/rules build fakeroot debian/rules binary or just fakeroot debian/rules binary to build a .deb from the current sources. I hadn’t succumbed to temptation until today; but now that I have, I want to fix it. I’ll discuss whether this is a good idea more in patch 3. Patches 1 and 2 are a bit simpler. Patch 1 allows tests to have multiple prerequisites, which seems like a good idea generally; patch 2 adds a missing POSIXPERM prerequisite to an existing test. I hope you like the patches. Sorry for the huge cc list; I did a quick search to find people interested one way or another, and aparently there are many. I am sending patches 1 and 2 only to the git list to avoid making the problem worse. Thoughts?
