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.

Best,

Leo.
