Make d-i packages usrmerge-ready?
Hi all,
I just noticed that many d-i packages currently get a lintian error
"aliased-location", complaining about binaries in locations, which are
now under the concept of usrmerge (aka /bin, /sbin and /lib).
Since udebs are sometimes a little bit different from "normal" Debian packages,
I would like to ask, if this is an issue for these packages or not.
Should we change this, or is the lintian error a false-positive?
And do we want to change it *now*?
Pascal 'pham' already mentioned, that d-i under trixie has merged-usr
in initrd.gz, but I want to make sure, before pushing changes to several
d-i packages, thus this mail...
See for example
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/grub-installer/-/merge_requests/23
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/anna/-/merge_requests/5
Testing of images with such changes did not show any issues.
Holger
