Comment (by anarcat):

 we might have a problem with automated installs using debootstrap, as it
 sets up usrmerge by default, which seems to cause significant problems:

 https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/MergedUsr

 we might want to switch to mmdebstrap for performance if not reliability
 anyways.

 this will at least need research and testing to confirm this is a problem.
