I'm trying to build SlugOS/BE on a Linux box (Fedora Core something or another). I kept on hitting a problem with fakeroot_1.8.3.tar.gz not being found on the Debian mirrors. Well, it is obsolete.

To fix the problem, I ftp'ed to one of the sites and found what the new version was and then I added some BitBake recipes:

[tdh@adept fakeroot]> mv fakeroot-1.8.3 fakeroot-1.9.5
[tdh@adept fakeroot]> mv fakeroot_1.8.3.bb fakeroot_1.9.5.bb
[tdh@adept fakeroot]> mv fakeroot-native-1.8.3 fakeroot-native-1.9.5
[tdh@adept fakeroot]> mv fakeroot-native_1.8.3.bb fakeroot-native_1.9.5.bb

And then I let the make run along...
