Right. Cheers for that. (I failed to check the dpkg bugs first because
I started filing against glibc and checked that list, then realised
part way through that this was best filed against dpkg).

How is the usrmerge done? bind-mounting? hardlinks?

Is dpkg-shlibdeps the only thing that is going to wrong if files stop
having a canonical location in the system? It's a pretty major change
having every library (and a load of binaries?) appear twice? (Or do I
misunderstand how this is implemented?).

Like Guillem, I'd be a lot happier if files, especially libraries,
only existed in the place they existed, and if we want to move that
then we should move it in the packaging. Isn't there potential for
autoconf or libtool to get confused too?

Anyway, I'll test raphael's patch. 

Wookey
