I did not know "chdist", but .. after a quick look I can say "apt-venv" has a different approach and goal. It has been developed to provide user with a full virtual environment, where you can run any command/script you want. If fact, it launches a new `bash` session with a custom APT_CONFIG environment variable, which forces apt to use a different sources.list. Perhaps, chdist may be patched to get this behavior... Anyway, I don't know perl.
