Package: dpkg
Version: 1.15.7.1

Hi,

1.15.7.1 seems to have a regression with relation to the handling of
`--root'.  It chroot()s into that directory nowadays and then fails to
call the right maintainer script due to the root value still being
prepended to the filename.

This causes the following (with `--root /mnt'):
cannot execute /mnt/var/lib/dpkg/info/nvidia-glx.prerm: No such file or 
directory

strace confirms the `chroot("/mnt")' call.  Am I using this parameter
wrongly or did something break?

Kind regards,
Philipp Kern
