http://fakeroot.alioth.debian.org/ is dead.

According to https://repology.org/project/fakeroot/packages other distributions use either:

• https://packages.debian.org/fakeroot
• https://wiki.debian.org/FakeRoot

The group(sys) BuildRequires is no longer next to the relevant comment

Please consider disabling the tar test only for SYSV IPC, see included README:

fakeroot can be built to either use SYSV IPC or TCP for message passing.

Cases for which the SYSV IPC version fails or causes problems but for which fakeroot-tcp has been observed to work well include the items listed below.

• Multithreaded applications (using pthread)
• Running under realtime-preempt kernel

@StefanBruens - fakeroot is actually on the lookout to get a maintainer :)
