    When I run the command dh_fixperms:

    I see the error below:

    chown: changing ownership of 'debian/linux-headers-5.4.24-050401-generic/usr/lib': Operation not permitted

    Running as root, it works fine.

    This command requires (pseudo-)root privileges (either fakeroot, sudo
    or building as root, with the last two being discouraged), or the
    packaging adapted to use the rootless-builds.txt support.

    Thanks,
    Guillem
