Dear Maintainer,

thy typically steps tu build a pacage ist to run these steps as user "root":

   # apt source tar
   # cd tar-1.34+dfsg
   # apt build-dep tar
   # dpkg-buildpackage -B "-Pnocheck noinsttest noudeb" -uc -us

This stops with an error

    configure: error: you should not run configure as root (set FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 in environment to bypass this check)

For automate tools such stop is not nice.
