You see this merely because a file like /bin/zgrep is essential, but
it's going to be renamed to /bin/zgrep.gzip so that the zutils version
can replace it. Without the diversion, zutils would violate the rule
that the same file can't be installed from more than one package.

It's exceptional enough for you to be warned that it's happening,
but particularly because the default behaviour will be changing
at some point. Anyway, it's expected behaviour.

Cheers,
David.
