Bug description:
The following packages have been identified as having a possible issue
related to usr-merge. DEP-17 describes the issue and problems at
length[0]. The check done was not perfect, and may lead to false
positives. The following was the run to identify possible packages,
further refined with slight pruning of obvious false positives

apt-file search --package-only --regexp
'^/(sbin|bin|lib|lib32|lib64|libx32)/*'

Lintian, when run on a suitably new system (such as within a resolute
build environment), will provide some errors related to usr-merge. an
example of a Lintian error from busybox

E: busybox-static: aliased-location [bin/]
E: busybox-static: aliased-location [bin/static-sh]

Please evaluate the follow packages for any issues dictated in dep17.
If any package below is not a part of the Kernel set, please let me
know and I'll file separate bugs for those packages (a bunch are
nvidia based, and I'm not sure who is owning them)
