the app confinement gets in your way here, the terminal app, even though
it has more permissions than a normal click package (which is why it
asks you for a password), still operates inside the boundaries of
apparmor.

if you watch syslog while trying to exec a foreign shell script that is
not in a system path you will most likely see apparmor denials. i also
think the chroot command is specifically blocked by apparmor...
