 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. 
 -- 
 Thanks, 
 Feri.
