Dear Maintainer, your package installs files related to udev, into /lib. These files need to be moved to /usr/lib as part of Debian's usr-merge effort [1]. Attached you will find a patch to delegate the exact placement of the udev files to udev.pc (using pkg-config). This should work today in unstable and, if necessary, for bookworm. Once udev.pc in unstable points to /usr/lib your package will benefit automatically after a binNMU or any other upload. Later during the trixie cycle I expect this bug class to raise in priority. Per the wiki, it is advisable to upload to experimental first, and wait a few days for the dumat tool to check your package. The same is advisable when any structural changes are done in the trixie cycle. Thank you for considering, Chris [1] https://wiki.debian.org/UsrMerge
