Steps to reproduce: * Have two chroots, containers or complete systems, one with merged /usr and one not * Build monitoring-plugins on the system with merged /usr * Install and use monitoring-plugins on the system without merged /usr Expected result: * The package is functionally equivalent to the package you'd get if it had been built on a system without merged /usr * The absolute paths of standard tools in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin do not appear in the package's content as paths in /bin or /sbin * Everything works as intended Actual result: * /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_apt contains what appears to be a string constant for /bin/apt-get * If this is a command that it invokes, then it will not work on non-merged-/usr systems where only /usr/bin/apt-get exists A merged-/usr system can be obtained by installing with debootstrap >= 1.0.102 or debootstrap --merged-usr, or by installing the usrmerge package. A non-merged-/usr system can be obtained by installing with debootstrap --no-merged-usr (or upgrading from an older release) and not installing usrmerge. Recent tests on tests.reproducible-builds.org use unmerged /usr for the first build and merged /usr for the second, as a way to detect some issues in this class. Because monitoring-plugins uses Autoconf, this can probably be fixed by passing APT_GET="/usr/bin/apt-get" as an additional command-line option when invoking dh_auto_configure or configure. smcv
