Hello!

I am not sure whether this issue has been fixed.

We're seeing this issue on buildds and porterboxes on Debian Ports,
regenerating the chroots fails:

dpkg: warning: ignoring pre-dependency problem!

dpkg: regarding .../util-linux_2.39.2-5_ppc64.deb containing util-linux, 
pre-dependency problem:
 util-linux pre-depends on libblkid1 (>= 2.37.2)
  libblkid1:ppc64 is unpacked, but has never been configured.

Could it be that debootstrap needs to be switched to enabled usrmerge by 
default?
