Yes, but a better thing is to fix dchroot's / su's stupidity with a
script (make this do_chroot):
     

I don't understand. What should I do with this script?
 

From the FAQ:
   You can make things slightly simpler even than this. Write a small
   shell script like the following, and place it in your PATH: eg.
   /usr/local/bin/do_dchroot
[Use the new script from the mailing list]
 

   Make it executable:
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/do_dchroot
 

   Now create a symlink to this script from each command you want to
   run inside the chroot to this shell script:
cd /usr/local/bin
ln -s do_dchroot openoffice
ln -s do_dchroot oowriter
ln -s do_dchroot oocalc
 

   Now you can execute openoffice by simply typing openoffice or oowriter.
