The above uses C<--map-auto> to map the block of user/group ids for the
effective user/group to a block starting at user/group ID 0. We also want to
map the current effective user/group ID into the subuid/subgid range using
C<--map-user> and C<--map-group>, respectively. But if that uid/gid overlaps
with the respective range, a "hole" will be removed from the mapping and the
remaining uid/gid values will get shifted. Thus, we map the current effective
user/group ID to the highest possible uid/gid, putting them at the end. Since
that means that the user/group will be "nobody" and not "root" inside the
namespace, C<--keep-caps> propagate permitted capabilities into the ambient set
and thus give the user C<CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE> and other capabilities that it
would've had.
Lastly, if you don't mind using superuser privileges and have systemd-nspawn

The above L<unshare(1)> command will map user and group ids into different
ranges compared to the mapping used by B<mmdebstrap> (effectively shifting them
one up) but it will provide the required capabilities for the removal
operation.
If this mode is used as the root user, the user namespace is not unshared (but If this mode is used as the root user, the user namespace is not unshared (but
the mount namespace and other still are) and created directories will have the mount namespace and other still are) and created directories will have
correct ownership information. This is also useful in cases where the root user correct ownership information. This is also useful in cases where the root user
