Thanks for the patch! As mentioned on IRC at the time, I'll be going
with an alternative solution, which I think I'll be uploading to
experimental alongside another potentially disruptive refactoring change
during the weekend.

Hi Guillem,

please move /sbin/start-stop-daemon to /usr for the /usr-move aka DEP17.
It's the last file in dpkg that needs moving and since it is essential,
it's a prerequisite for doing the bootstrap work. Thanks in advance.
