I think it's just a minor documentation bug. IMHO when running

`sbuild-createchroot bookworm /var/lib/schroot/schroots/bookworm-amd64-sbuild http://localhost:3142/deb.debian.org/debian/`

it should output a warning/info that it created an unmerged-/usr. This is a tripfall because setting "$run_piuparts = 1;" in .sbuildrc will make sbuild use that schroot to do upgrade tests with piuparts, which will fail (a separate bug though). I spent a few hours trying to figure out what I did wrong creating my build environment and would like to avoid any newcomers running into the same issue.

I looked at the code at https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debootstrap/-/blob/master/functions?ref_type=heads#L1513, and IMHO that line should be removed, so it will unconditionally emit this warning.

I'm avoiding full-quoting smcv's previous mail, because (with my
usrmerge-not-really-hat on) I fully agree with it. I don't think
there is anything in sbuild to fix.

About the general points that apply to usrmerge in Debian, ISTM the
train has left the station before bookworm was released.
