Package: libpcre2-8-0
Version: 10.42-1
Severity: critical
Since libpcre2-8-0 was moved to /usr, every update kills my whole system
as nearly everything is depending on that library.
Every other library can be managed via dpkg-divert but not libpcre2-8-0.
So after every update, my system is unusable and unbootable until I boot
a rescue system and manually move everything from
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre2-8.so* to /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/.
Please move libpcre2-8-0 back to /lib where it belongs to.

Having libraries in /usr is not a bug. The plan is to move all files to
/usr anyway (see "usrmerge" or "merged-/usr"); moving files from /usr
to / is therefore not useful.
Not having /usr available (after initramfs) hasn't been a supported
configuration in Debian for some time.
