Package: dpkg
Version: 1.21.22
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
"man dpkg" says:
DPKG_ROOT
[...] When installing packages into a different instdir, dpkg
normally invokes maintainer scripts using chroot(2) and leaves
this variable empty, but if --force-script-chrootless is specified
then the chroot(2) call is skipped and instdir is non-empty.
The above would make more sense to me if the "instdir" reference in the
last line was "DPKG_ROOT", so I suspect a typo here. Please fix the
documentation or my confusion.

Feri.
