makepkg: enforce fakeroot usage
Packaging outside of fakeroot can result in incorrect permissions for
package files. It has been years since fakeroot issues during packaging
were common, so it is safe to enforce fakeroot usage. If using fakeroot
is impossible for some reason, a two line wrapper script will suffice to
fool makepkg.

This is highly recommended. - *distcc*;; Use the distributed C/C++/ObjC compiler to spread compilation among multiple machines. If this is enabled, `DISTCC_HOSTS` must be specified |
