By my definition, these have never been working correctly, but
semantics I guess. My wish would be to indeed salvage those systems,
that's why I implemented dpkg-fsys-usrunmess. But if people refuse,
then at some point I'd personally consider them lost, TBH. :/

Well, in my mind the first and most immediate action that would be
done, is to stop the bleeding, by:

  - reverting the changes in deboostrap in sid, bullseye (and ideally
    in buster too),
  - reverting the notion that split-/usr is unsupported (which includes
    the extremely confusing interpretation about this applying to
    sid/testing too), and update documentation such as release-notes,
    etc.,
  - adding a Conflicts against usrmerge somewhere (dpkg, base-files or
    similar) for extra caution,
  - (optionally) removing usrmerge from buster, bullseye and sid,

I'd be ready to prepare patches or file reports for any of these.

But then, my expectations regarding Debian have plummeted so…

If by requiring you mean documenting the requirement, then I don't
think that would be enough.

But I could see introducing a preinst somewhere (perhaps base-files,
to permit upgrading dpkg itself) which would check for those unsupported
systems and emit a big fat message explaining the situation and
instructions to follow to be able to proceed, then abort. Similar in vein
with how other preventions (AFAIR) have been implemented for example on
glibc or udev for environment, multi-arch or kernel requirements.

Sadly, even introducing that into bullseye would not guarantee that the
bookworm upgrade would already be in a sane state, as there's no
guarantee people do not skip point releases. But I assume it would cover
most of the installations. So the problem would be greatly minimized.
Only after the bookworm upgrade has been completed this would be
guaranteed.

There's a known problematic interaction with a systemd's emergency mode
misbehavior/bug, which I've worked around, plus some other robustness
improvements I've prepared that will be included in 1.21.0, and targeted
for 1.20.10. I should probably also add a temporary policy-rc.d to
batch and defer all service actions for after the mass reconfiguration,
which I'll try to code up soonish to further improve robustness.

Otherwise I've taken great care and consideration on trying to make it
as robust as possible, but I guess out of cautiousness and given the
nature of what the script is doing (which is still a hack, although a
self-contained one at least), I'd be hard pressed to probably ever
declare it 100% safe. :/ Of course more testing is always helpful!

Thanks,
Guillem
