I have on purpose not installed usrmerge and in fact have blacklisted that package as it would break the system up to a state that is not recoverable! My system is from early 2000 and always working but it gets more and more a hassle with important libraries in /usr as /usr is not available in early boot. There is simply no reason to break such systems as mine on purpose with moving libraries to /usr. But for a reason I cannot see, debian has moved already several important libraries. Al I can handle with dpkg-divert but not libprcre2-8.
