Local chroots are superior to that, not inferior, when they are also available..
local schroots don't permit to run autopkgtest in the same env (Debian uses lsc), and I don't think we can reproduce distinct architectures inside lsc. (And when I follow the lsc doc given with autopkgtest, nothing work: no network inside containers).
So Like Nilesh, I try to reproduce autopkgtest failures using modified build tests (and waste a lot of time to do that).
