When upgrading my Debian 11 template to 12 i get stuck at
-- cut --
Setting up usrmerge (35) ...
FATAL ERROR:
/lib/modules/ is a mount point.
Probably this system is using User Mode Linux.
To continue the conversion please:
- replace '/lib/modules/' with '/usr/lib/modules/' in /etc/fstab
- reboot
- try again
E: usrmerge failed.
dpkg: error processing package usrmerge (--configure):
installed usrmerge package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
usrmerge
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Tried different solutions... no way.
/lib/modules is a qubes-specific mount (provided by dom0)
-> qubes team has to decide how to comply with debian's "merge /usr" dogma, otherwise we can not upgrade.
