Your package installs programs into /bin.  For the ongoing Debian
UsrMerge effort [1] these files should be relocated to /usr/bin in the
trixie cycle.

The simplest way to achieve that is probably to use the dh_movetousr
tool added in debhelper 13.11.7, see the attached patch.

Cheers,

Subject: [PATCH] Move binaries below /usr

The upstream Makefile installs binaries into /bin, in Debian trixie
and later they should be installed into /usr/bin instead.  Use the
dh_movetousr tool added in debhelper 13.11.7 to achieve that.

Adding dh-sequence-movetousr to Build-Depends is not strictly
necessary, but it helps with backports and ensures that dh_movetousr
is run in case debian/rules gets ever converted to dh.
