_Originally created by @intrigeri on [#9419 (Redmine)](https://public-redmine-archive.tails.boum.org/code/issues/9419)_ We’re using eatmydata to speed up the build a bit. However, it’s not actually used for most of the build, since: - we currently install eamydata via the first huge `apt-get install` run, so this one is not covered by eatmydata, which is too bad since it’s likely the biggest generator of disk writes; - `live-build`’s `Chroot` function cleans the environment and only passes through a few environment variables to the commands it runs. We need to make it forward `LD_PRELOAD`. And while we’re at it, we can as well forward `FAKETIME`, which will help when working on tails/tails#5630.
