Package: fakeroot
Version: 1.5.10
Severity: normal

Hi,

running chown on a >4GB file under fakeroot does not work:

# fakeroot chown root.root very_large_file.tgz 
chown: changing ownership of `very_large_file.tgz': Value too large for defined 
data type
# ls -l very_large_file.tgz 
-rw-r--r-- 1 user root 6040771903 2007-01-16 02:46 very_large_file.tgz

The same command issued as root without the fakeroot wrapper works, thus
the error is probably somewhere in fakeroot. Note that very_large_file.tgz
is larger than 4GB, fakeroot chown on smaller files works as expected.
