Title:
  Error trying to bootstrap ubuntu lunar from a lunar chroot: E:
  Couldn't find these debs: usr-is-merged

Status in debootstrap package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Trying to bootstrap Ubuntu 23.04 from 23.04 chroot generates an error
  as shown below. Steps done prior trying to bootstrap: created a
  symlink named lunar linking to bullseye located in the
  /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts folder.

  # debootstrap --variant=minbase lunar /target http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
  W: Cannot check Release signature; keyring file not available /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg

  E: Couldn't find these debs: usr-is-merged

  Adding --exclude=usr-is-merged to command line avoids the problem.

  Temporary chroot bootstrapped from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS using command
  # debootstrap --variant=minbase --no-check-gpg lunar /tmp/lunar http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

  Chroot accessed using a helper script created by me that automates
  many repetitive jobs when chrooting to a linux based OS, it is
  attached, usage: script_name chroot

  Debootstrap version 1.0.127ubuntu1
