Package: fakeroot
Version: 1.11
Severity: wishlist

 fakeroot used to work with ACLs, but doesn't seem to anymore.
 I think the change came at version 1.9 with Thomas B\344chler's
 patch (see Bug#361306).

 I'd like to see one of Thomas' long-term solutions implemented 
 (add support for ACLs or xattrs in fakeroot).

 Here's an example of it working and not working:

$ cat /etc/debian_version
4.0
$ fakeroot -v
fakeroot version 1.5.10
$ fakeroot
# cp -p filewithacls newfile
# ls -l
-rw-rwxr--+ 1 root root 35090 Mar 23 09:27 filewithacls*
-rw-r-xr--+ 1 root root 35090 Mar 23 09:27 newfile*
#

$ cat /etc/debian_version
5.0
$ fakeroot -v
fakeroot version 1.11
$ fakeroot
# ls -l
-rw-rwxr--+  1 root root 35210 Mar 23 14:09 filewithacls*
# cp -p filewithacls newfile
cp: preserving permissions for `newfile': Operation not supported
#


 (NOTE: Clint gave me a workaround (rebuild the fakeroot package 
  without libacl1-dev installed), so we've at least got that)
