By my count there are 1712 binary packages from X source packages installing things outside /etc /usr /var $ apt-file search --regexp '^/[^euv]' | sed 's/: .*//' | sort -u | wc -l 1712 Many of those are systemd unit files and updating systemd and debhelper and then rebuilding all of the packages containing systemd unit files will presumably solve a fair amount of packages. $ apt-file search --regexp '^/[^euv]' | grep /lib/systemd | sed 's/: .*//' | sort -u | wc -l 1121 After eliminating systemd unit files, the problem looks less imposing: $ apt-file search --regexp '^/[^euv]' | grep -v /lib/systemd | sed 's/: .*//' | sort -u | wc -l 733 -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
