Package: reportbug Version: 7.5.2 Severity: wishlist Hi!
The merged-/usr deployment method of using directory symlinks, instead of properly moving the files or symlinking the contents of these directories is broken by design. Please see <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2019/02/msg00251.html>. I'd appreciate if you could add information on filed bugs about such tainted systems. For dpkg I added the following bug-script: ,--- #!/bin/sh set -e for d in /bin /sbin /lib /lib32 /libo32 /libx32 /lib64; do if [ "$(readlink $d)" = "usr$d" ]; then echo "System tainted due to merged-usr-via-symlinks." >&3 break fi done `--- Thanks, Guillem
