Bug Description

A few remaining packages in Ubuntu are incompatible with a merged /usr because they ship the same file in /bin and /usr/bin; it looks like Debian will soon default to that, and we surely want to follow suit.

The duplicate file/symlink needs to be removed, or created in postinst.

cgroup-lite:

lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2016-03-02 07:56 ./usr/bin/cgroups-umount -> /bin/cgroups-umount
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2016-03-02 07:56 ./usr/bin/cgroups-mount -> /bin/cgroups-mount

which is completely redundant.

grub ships ./sbin/update-grub and ./sbin/grub-install, while grub2-common ships ./usr/sbin/update-grub and ./usr/sbin/grub-install. The latter is also shipped by lupin-support

  * Drop /usr/bin symlinks to binaries in /bin, to prepare ourselves for a
    future /usr merge. (LP: #1629552)
  * Drop unnecessary debian/dirs.
