The output from dpkg is exactly the same.
What do you mean by "Have you tried to install your optified packages after
you created
/opt directory inside your target?" ?
I have:

[sbox-FREMANTLE_X86: ~] > v /targets/links/opt
lrwxrwxrwx  1 cthulhu cthulhu 26 Oct  7 15:26 /targets/links/opt ->
/targets/FREMANTLE_X86/opt

and:

[sbox-FREMANTLE_X86: ~] > v /targets/FREMANTLE_X86
total 76
[...]
drwxrwxr-x   2 cthulhu cthulhu 4096 Oct  7 15:04 opt
[..]

but:

[sbox-FREMANTLE_X86: ~] > v /opt
lrwxrwxrwx  1 cthulhu cthulhu 9 Oct  6 16:46 /opt -> /home/opt
