So where's the bug ?

---

Moreover: from dpkg 1.19.0 we can build the package without fakeroot:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=291320
   * Add support to dpkg-deb for rootless builds, by setting the owner and
     group for the control.tar entries to root:root, and making it possible to
     do the same for the data.tar entries via the new --root-owner-group option.
     Based on a patch by Niels Thykier <niels at thykier.net>. Closes: #291320

This would reach testing today (maybe),
so we'd still have to keep a depedency on "dpkg (>= 1.19.0) |
fakeroot" for years on
+ check dpkg version it a run-time.
