The dummy package

My $INSTALL_ROOT is not /.
When casting a dummy package (see attached file), I get the following output :
Creating cache file
/home/share/sorcery/var/cache/sorcery/dummy-2010-04-30-i386-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
tar: /opt/dummy: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: /opt/dummy/install-dir: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: /opt/dummy/install-dir/total.txt: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: /opt/dummy/total.txt: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: /opt/dummy/fic2.txt: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: /opt/dummy/fic1.txt: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

In delve, the INSTALL_ROOT variable is set to "". Commenting out this line
suppress the above error message, but as a consequence files get installed in
$INSTALL_ROOT/$INSTALL_ROOT

To solve this new problem I modified the libstage file, so that it does not 
add
$INSTALL_ROOT before the destination of the files it creates, as the $FILE or
$DIR variable already contains it due to the commenting of the 
$INSTALL_ROOT=""
line.

I will add the patches in the following comments.

I am not sure about these modifications, because I am unfamiliar with the code
base, however, they solve the problem, as files get installed at the right
place and the cache archive is created so that the spell can be resurrected.
