Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.128+nmu2devuan2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

My official Devuan Docker image builds started failing and looking
into the issue[1], I noticed that an explicit --merged-usr option is
needed.  Considering that Devuan has decided[2] to go with UsrMerge as
of excalibur, I think that that is no longer the desired behaviour when
building excalibur or ceres.  For these and later versions --merged-usr
should be the default.

 [2]: https://devuan.org/os/announce/excalibur-usrmerge-announce-2024-02-20.html

I took a peek at the changes for Debian's debootstrap (which is at
1.0.134, btw!) and noticed that there have been a few merged-usr
related changes since 1.0.128+nmu2.
