           Summary: smart lacks a --root=/somedir parameter

Kiwi fails currently to init a system in subdir, when deb.rpm is installed.

The problem is that 
  smart --data-dir /somedir/var/lib/smart config --show

does init a deb-sys, because the check for /var/lib/dpkg is hardcoded to / as
bases system. I do not see any option to check within a subdir, / seems to be
hardcoded.

a chroot before does not work either, because the system does not exist at this
point.
