Would probably be enough to make this policy-compliant again.

Please do that.

While doing more piuparts tests starting from ancient releases, I found that the combination of dhcpcd/wheezy with dhcpcd5/bullseye prevents the installation of usrmerge (and thus the upgrade to bookworm) with

  FATAL ERROR:
  Both /sbin/dhcpcd and /usr/sbin/dhcpcd exist.

This package combination is e.g. achieved by installing wicd-daemon in wheezy and upgrading release by release to bookworm.

To solve that, we need to add Conflicts: dhcpcd (<< 1:5~) to usrmerge which will make dhcpcd in sid (and bookworm) uninstallable due to the missing epoch.
