Furthermore, you see a regression in the mmdebstrap autopkgtest due to this
version: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/debootstrap

That regression is to this change of --no-merged-usr. Please point out what you
plan to do about this change in debootstrap so that I can adapt the mmdebstrap
autopkgtest accordingly.
