We will need to check if this applies to APT/wheezy and/or APT/unstable.

It could be that rev 1561.1.206 solves this:

apt (0.8.12) unstable; urgency=low
…
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc, apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
    - honor Dpkg::Chroot-Directory in the RunScripts*() methods
…

as apt-extracttemplate is not directly executed from APT.

I remember that we had some changes in that area as well, I just can't
seem to find them just yet.


Would be nice if you could test this in wheezy as I never used these options
myself so far so I don't know the "usecase" to properly test it.
