Thanks for reporting this.  I think we probably want the "Path" rather
than the "Location", as reported by "schroot -i".  However, I will
need to double check that before making any changes.

Just to confirm that: if you run

  % schroot -c sid bash

what is the output of

  % schroot -i --all-sessions
  % schroot --config --all-sessions

? (run this from another shell prompt).
