## NAME
       faked  -  daemon  that  remembers fake ownership/permissions of files manipulated by fakeroot
       processes.

## SYNOPSIS
       **faked** **[--debug]** **[--foreground]** **[--cleanup]** **[--key** _msg-key_**]** **[--load]**  **[--save-file**  _save-file_**]**
       **[--port** _TCP-port_**]**

## DESCRIPTION
       If a fakeroot process wants to change the ownership of a file, then **faked** is the process that
       remembers that new owner. If later the same fakeroot process does a stat() for that filename,
       then  the  libfakeroot wrapped stat() call will first ask faked for the fake ownership etc of
       that file, and then report it.


## OPTIONS
### --debug
              Print debugging information on stderr.

### --foreground
              Don't fork into the background.

### --cleanup  number
              Cleanup the semaphores.

### --key  key-number
              Don't allocate a new communication channel, but use channel specified by key. (If  the
              specified channel doesn't exist, it's created).

### --save-file  save-file
              Save the environment to save-file on exit.

       **--load** Load a previously saved environment from the standard input.

### --unknown-is-real
              Use real ownership of previously-unknown files instead of setting them to root:root.

### --port  tcp-port
              Use TCP port tcp-port.


## BUGS
       None  so  far. Be warned, though: although I've written quite a few much larger (and smaller)
       programs, I've never written anything that was as tiny as **fakeroot**, had as many bugs as **fake**‐‐
       **root**,  and  still was as usable as, say, **fakeroot** version 0.0_3, the first version that could
       be used to build itself.
