chrony does clean stat overrides on purge. From d/postinst:
for d in /var/lib/chrony /var/log/chrony /etc/chrony/chrony.keys; do
if dpkg-statoverride --list "$d" >/dev/null; then
dpkg-statoverride --remove "$d"
fi
done
Since this issue does not seem to be reproducible outside schroot, I'm assuming
it is due to the way it has been configured. By default, schroot copies some
files from the host (e.g. /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group) into the chroot
each time a new session is started. Could this be the issue at play?
