You probably have a separate /var Filesystem. If so, you have to mount that too (under /a/var). The information about installed packages resides in the /var filesystem.

copyfs-mount
COPYFS-MOUNT(1) User Commands COPYFS-MOUNT(1)
NAME
copyfs-mount - mounts a versioned file system
SYNOPSIS
copyfs-mount version-directory mount-point
DESCRIPTION
This script lets you mount a CopyFS file system. version-directory is the directory where the files and version information will be stored
by CopyFS.
When using CopyFS for the first time, copyfs-mount will create the required files in the version-directory before running copyfs-daemon.
mount-point is the directory where the copyfs file system will be mounted. This is where the users will have access to the files.
If you want to mount a CopyFS at '/mnt/fs', whose version directory is at /var/versions, you would use:
root@host# copyfs-mount /var/versions /mnt/fs
To unmount it, simply do:
root@host# umount /mnt/fs
As you would do for any other filesystem.
You can also allow an ordinary non-root users to mount and unmount CopyFS filesystems provided that the user is added to the 'fuse' group.
Ordinary users will be able unmount the filesystem, using the fusermount command:
$ fusermount -u mount-point
