Thanks for the logs, it looks like it's only file under
/lib/systemd/system/ that went missing - can you find them anywhere
else on the system?

Now that you point out this, it recalls me that years ago,
I moved /lib/systemd/system/ to /etc/conffiles-out-etc/lib/systemd/system
(so that the systemd configuration files are correctly tracked by etckeeper)
and I put a /lib/systemd/system -> /etc/conffiles-out-etc/lib/systemd/system
symlink.

So, I'm downgrading the severity. But as it is allowed
to create symlinks to other part of the disk for directory,
usrmerge should handle this case (or, at least, give a
preeminent message about a strange situation)

I try to explain the difference:

Files previously in /usr/lib/...

Only in /lib/systemd/system/: pam_namespace.service
Only in /lib/systemd/system/: pcscd.service

Package not reinstalled
Only in /etc/conffiles-out-etc/lib/systemd/system/:

Removed packages
Only in /etc/conffiles-out-etc/lib/systemd/system/: osspd.service
Only in /etc/conffiles-out-etc/lib/systemd/system/: 
pulseaudio-enable-autospawn.service

Files not removed on package upgrade?
Only in /etc/conffiles-out-etc/lib/systemd/system/: cgroupfs-mount.service
Only in /etc/conffiles-out-etc/lib/systemd/system/: screen-cleanup.service



Directories are merged recursively if they exist in both hierarchies,
so I guess you had something that installs files in
/usr/lib/systemd/system/ and something went horribly wrong somewhere.
We don't delete files, so I'm thinking they might have been moved to
the wrong place.

We can add debsums -c before/after the conversion, so that if this
happens again there's a clear message immediately. But this is very
strange, I've never seen this reported in Debian or Ubuntu in ~5 years.

  If I understand, the bug occurs when a directory exists
in both / and /usr and the directory in / is in fact a
symlink to another directory elsewhere. Not a classical
situation indeed, but it can exists...
