[Slackbuilds-users] Is it possible to test build packages using chroot?

[Sebastian Arcus]

As per title, is it possible to use chroot to test build packages 
against a different version of Slackware? For example if I have 
slackware -current on my machine, instead of setting up a full virtual 
machine, could I have a Slackware 15.0 install in a directory, and just 
chroot to it to test build a package? I confess I only have a general 
understanding of how chroot works - so there might be a reason why this 
can't work.
