Hello,

Fakeroot in it's version 1.6.4 is no longer on the debian mirrors. I updated VERSION to 1.6.5 and it works (no problem about fakeroot-doc.patch patch)

Cheers,

[Buildroot] Problem with fakeroot package - 1.6.5 gone

Version 1.6.5 has now gone too - can we have the version as a menuconfig option please, it shouldn't require a patch every time Debian decides to tidy its files.

Currently the version number is hardcoded with := into the .mk file, if it was set using a ?= it would at least be overridable.
