Per filesystem hierarchy, files installed in /bin, /lib and /sbin should be self-sufficient and not link to libraries installed in /usr. Such linking is invalid and makes the files unusable without /usr mounted.
This will all resolve itself when the / -> /usr migration happens. Go ahead and open bugs and add them here though so we know which packages need to be fixed.

Dupe of bug #245729?

Was wondering - wouldn't it make sense to move their configuration files from /etc to /usr/etc , since there is also no point in keeping them in /etc, if they require /usr to be mounted first?

Afaik in Unix philosphy /usr are the Unix Shared Resources - shared between several computers, e.g. via NFS. For that reason /usr has no directory for configuration files.
Created attachment 399992 [details] Report on a uclibc-based system I use a different script (because busybox ash does not like piping a for statement to another for) on my uclibc-based system a I get many binaries linking to the shared version of libgcc in /usr . Should I remove the shared library manually, then rebuild the affected packages, thus forcing the use of the static version? I will not file a bug against app-shells/fish because this shell is really an interactive shell, not something you run scripts on it. However, nano linking to libmagic deserves a bug report, in my opinion.
