On your system, the root directory is /. Packages don't have a root yet.


$ pacman -r /var/lib/archbuild/extra-x86_64/root -Ql bash | grep bin
bash /var/lib/archbuild/extra-x86_64/root/usr/bin/
bash /var/lib/archbuild/extra-x86_64/root/usr/bin/bash
bash /var/lib/archbuild/extra-x86_64/root/usr/bin/bashbug
