No. Only chroot is involved: instdir defaults to / and refers to the directory where packages are to be installed. instdir is also the directory passed to chroot(2) before running package's installation scripts, which means that the scripts see instdir as a root directory. Changing root changes instdir to dir and admindir to dir/var/lib/dpkg. > If you want to build with real root, notice > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=144571&repeatmerged=yes > please.
