Package: systemd
Version: 215-12
Severity: normal
File: /usr/share/man/man7/file-hierarchy.7.gz
The file-hierarchy(7) man page states that /bin, /sbin, /usr/sbin, and
/lib are compatibility symlinks that point to other locations. While
this may be true on other systems, it isn't true on Debian, nor is it in
conformance with the FHS[0], which is required as part of Debian Policy.
This should be corrected and the entire page should probably be audited
for other statements that aren't accurate for Debian.
[0] Debian currently permits a separate /usr, and "/bin contains
commands that may be used by both the system administrator and by
users, but which are required when no other filesystems are mounted."

merged-usr is now the default if you install your (buster) system from
scratch. Thus closing this bug report.
