Dear Maintainer,

your package installs files related to systemd and udev, into /lib.
These files need to be moved to /usr/lib as part of Debian's
usr-merge effort [1].

Attached you will find a patch to delegate the exact placement to
systemd.pc/udev.pc (using pkg-config). This should work today in
unstable and, if necessary, for bookworm. Once udev.pc in unstable
points to /usr/lib your package will benefit automatically after a
binNMU or any other upload. systemd.pc in unstable already points to
/usr/lib.

Later during the trixie cycle I expect this bug class to raise in
priority.

Per the wiki, it is advisable to upload to experimental first, and
wait a few days for the dumat tool to check your package. The same
is advisable when any structural changes are done in the trixie
cycle.

Thank you for considering,
Chris
