Public bug reported:

For the DEP17 effort, we've introduced a number of dpkg diversions of
the form $foo -> $foo.usr-is-merged, ahead of Debian. They've done since
their own transition, and the diversions they added are much less
numerous and much more discreet (only for "multiarch" dirs such as
/lib64 and /lib32, and using /.$foo.usr-is-merged which is way less
invasive).

When merging glibc and base-files, where those diversions are added in
the preinsts, we should take care of cleaning up our old diversions as
well as whatever still clutter the filesystem.
