Besides the drama: we built yesterday a preliminary version of the
debian-installer for beowulf which has an explicit opt-in question for
usrmerge:

https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dists/unstable/main/installer-amd64/current/

and defaults to the classical behaviour (/bin and /sbin proper folders
under /). Please use the mini.iso, and do not report any bug related
to desktop thingies not working, since elogind and polkit-stuff are
not there yet.
