Which do you recommend? I have VirtualBox installed and could create another
Arch Linux guest, or I could try and setup a chroot environment. I know how to
do the virtual machine, but I'm interested in the chroot. (saves updating the
guest install)

I know how to chroot my OS, but I've never created a chroot to build packages.
Would I just need to setup a fakeroot environment somewhere with:

fakeroot
  /opt/qt
  /opt/trinity
  /home/trinity-svn
  (and what else??)

I'll google it, but if you have a favorite link, I'll take it :)
