d625227229 package/pseudo: new package
Pseudo is a program that can either be used directly or as an
LD_PRELOAD, which allows these operations to succeed as if the
user did have system administrator privileges even though they
are an ordinary user.

Pseudo has a lot of similarities to fakeroot but is a new
implementation that improves on the problems seen using fakeroot.
