popen does NOT require /bin/sh in a subchroot
I appears that when chrooted, the /bin/sh used by popen is that of the parent
process. This is true until the process forks once chrooted, which we do not
want to do.
As such, this actually makes things nicer. We don't need a /bin/sh in a chroot
to run install scriptlets, and don't need to check for it in the root directory
