Yes I think it is needed, but maybe guillem come with another ideas.
Do you have an usertag for tracking bug you have already openned ?

For dpkg-divert I do not know how to handle I could be different
depending the cases.

I means that binaries under s?bin and libraries are different beast. I
think the solution for library is to not use symlink (and delete one
of copy) because LD_PATH is always used whereas for bin you could call
it directly.

Maybe I commit some mistake
