>From the test log: │ -lrwxrwxrwx 0 0 0 0 2017-01-01 00:00:00.000000 bin -> usr/bin │ +drwxr-xr-x 0 0 0 0 2017-01-01 00:00:00.000000 bin/ │ +-rwxr-xr-x 0 0 0 1099016 2016-11-15 18:49:00.000000 bin/bash The patch for #839046 also disabled --merged-usr for stretch as stretch was added to the blacklist in first_stage_install(). debootstrap should default to non-merged-usr for stretch, but it should be possible to enable merged-usr via the command-line parameter to avoid the regression in debuerreotype.
