Thanks for the update. Merged /usr is mostly working in stretch. Merged /usr is not supported at all in jessie, and it is not a surprise when something breaks. The latest usrmerge package in stretch already conflicts with libpng12-0 (<< 1.2.54-4~), so this is already fixed there. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
