I confirm the problem and understand the failure. Mea culpa. When I adapted the code for bookworm (which is /usr-merged, but has /bin/sync), I failed to notice that I also conditionalized the moving code, so the unmerged-/usr path would now divert with --no-rename and not move /bin/sync either. That makes ln unhappy as we can see. I've created a merge request to address this regression and am sorry for having broken piuparts so many times. Helmut
