founda way aruond it if I install each package twice, once to its
location in /pkgs and once normally, then delete everything outside of
/pkgs (with /dev probably being an exception) when done. However, as my
university studies keep me busy, I don't actually have time to test this
and see if it would work.
That sounds more like the fake root approach. I've used the fake root
approach in serious (read: professional) development, and it has
very real advantages.
As for AUFS vs UnionFS, I think AUFS is far superior to UnionFS to the
point where in some distros UnionFS isn't even provided (Arch offers
AUFS instead of UnionFS). I don't see any features in UnionFS that it
isn't in AUFS.
Well, that's the rumor, but I haven't seen any real data.
Thanks!

Yes, that's part of installed. It must be present in the host's
kernel. I wonder what the problem was with a chroot? Were the support
mount etc. part of the chroot environment?
