The repo.db.tar.gz is what I would expect.

-d says It will add the path to a local repo not that the repo database 
will be called local.db.tar.gz

Just put

[repo]
Server = file:///repo

into the pacman.conf in the chroot directory and it will work.

Then the chroot evironment will be able to load/install dependcy 
packages when needed for building the "package under building".

I do this all the time.
