I want to ask a potentially stupid question.

As I understand things, the problem is that in a usrmerge'd file
system where we have the top-level symlinks /{bin,lib,sbin} which
point at /usr/{bin,lib,sbin}, the problem is if we have a package
which contains the file in /sbin/blart, it gets installed in
/usr/sbin/blart thanks to the symlink, but the dpkg database has an
entry for /sbin/blart, and that is the conflict which is the problem.

So.... in theory, if we had a program which looked for the top-level
symlinks /{bin,lib,sbin} -> /usr/{bin,lib,sbin}, and if they exist,
scans dpkg database is scanned looking for of the form
/{bin,lib,sbin}/$1, and updates them with /usr/{bin,lib,sbin}/$1, and
then in the future, if dpkg sees the top-level symlink, canonicalizes
any files referenced in the packages to /usr/{bin,lib,sbin}/$1, with a
fallback searching for /{bin,lib,sbin}/$1 in the file system, this
would solve the problem.

Let's ignore how we would deploy this helper program and the update
dpkg from a stable upgrade perspective, but in terms of preventing
potential problems during the testing window, getting an update to
dpkg which included the database fixup program and which ran from the
maintainer script would be a potential solution path.

Furthermore, if dpkg knew to always canonicalize filenames from
/{bin,lib,sbin}/XXX to /usr/{bin,lib,sbin}XXX when adding to the
database, and when it looked for files in the file system looked first
in /usr/{bin,lib,sbin}/XXX, with a fallback to /usr/{bin,lib,sbin}/XXX
the file names in the package would not need to change all, since all
of the magic fixup work would be happening inside dpkg.

Is this a viable path forward, or am I missing something?

Thanks,

						- Ted
