One can achieve this by using a configuration file that specifies
state and cache directories.
Does one need to pass extra command line arguments?
For the febootstrap yum/rpm backend we have an extra arg that can be
passed through, allowing a local configuration file to be specified
(yum doesn't need this to do local caching, but it's still extremely
useful for other things).
libguestfs ./configure --with-febootstrap-yum-config:
http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=blob;f=configure.ac;h=96d95f95...
febootstrap --yum-config:
http://git.annexia.org/?p=febootstrap.git;a=blob;f=febootstrap_cmdline.ml...
We could do the same for apt/dpkg.
