Lintian tag: unmerged-usr

Type: classification

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The named file is being installed in a legacy location. Many competing
distributions install this file under /usr. Debian would like to do the
same, but the best way to get there is presently unclear.

Please coordinate with the release team before you change this path to the
new location. There is a growing body of evidence that uncoordinated
action by individual package maintainers or teams may not be the best path
forward.

Debian's Technical Committee voted on February 1, 2021 that the bookworm
release should support only the merged-usr root filesystem layout, thus
dropping support for the non-merged-usr layout.
