This was not an intended feature. When specifiing a diectory as the
target you are supposed to ensure that it already exists under
${DESTDIR}. It seems that this just happened to work when the target
name ended in a slash.
The changes in the last point release to avoid duplicating files
accessed via directory symlinks broke that because realpath strips the
trailing slash.
I suppose I can make this work again for bookworm, but I won't do so
for unstable.
