Really. That sounds like a jab. Is there an ego needing a snack?
What is 'bad' about using sudo? If I have a package that needs to be
owned by root what is wrong with sudo? I'm not sure what is to like
about fakeroot. It lets me create a setuid root program without
asking me if I want to grant this priviledge to my users. At least
sudo has a permission check.
