wsl-pro-service has been identified as having a possible issue related
to usr-merge. DEP-17 describes the issue and problems at length[0]. The
check done was not perfect, and may lead to false positives. The
following was the run to identify possible packages, further refined
with slight pruning of obvious false positives

apt-file search --package-only --regexp
'^/(sbin|bin|lib|lib32|lib64|libx32)/*'

Lintian, when run on a suitably new system (such as within a resolute
build environment), will provide some errors related to usr-merge. an
example of a Lintian error from busybox

E: busybox-static: aliased-location [bin/]
E: busybox-static: aliased-location [bin/static-sh]

Please evalute wsl-pro-service for any issues dictated in dep17
