It turns out that I can't use my chroots anymore and this might be
related:

sid-amd64-ea06953d-9a19-4a47-b242-5cee56be00b1: Chroot not found
Can't close schroot pipe getting chroot data at /usr/share/perl5/Sbuild/Chroot.pm line 81.

If I exit 0 before the fsck, then it works. If the fsck gets to run,
it doesn't. Might this be related?
