That certainly works, but might break with future schroot versions,
since that directory is an implementation detail.  You can do

schroot -l --all-sessions
==> session:sid-sbuild-28666af7-3e88-42cd-a83c-16267088d3f6

Note that this is also version-specific since only newer versions
add the session: namespace.
