I appreciate your attention to detail. My analysis did not exhaustively
cover autopkgtests. Unfortunately, the words usrmerge and usr-is-merged
are used quite widely now, so codesearching them is no longer useful.

bubblewrap has a test dependency on usrmerge and requires an update
indeed.

I think dbus is triggered, because it has an dependency alternative on
usr-is-merged. This should be fine.

init-system-helpers lost its dependency today.

mmdebstrap has a test trigger on usrmerge. I'm pretty confident that
Johannes will discard it as soon as usrmerge is gone for good and wants
to keep it for the time being.

I'll look into bubblewrap in more detail and do something about it.

Helmut
