I suspect you are using a bulleye or bookworm system with pbuilder to build for unstable. Please update your debootstrap package from the relevant -updates suite and it'll work again. The debootstrap update will be part of the next point release. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but the ordering has been beyond my control. Now this change has a lower risk of adding to the breakage. We need to remove files from aliased locations in essential packages rather soon. A future base-files update will move the /lib -> usr/lib symlink into base-files' data.tar and if liblzma5 hasn't moved by then it may break this link. Thanks for your cooperation. Helmut
