First of all, let's translate this German text to English: (only a
minority will speak German here)

It says that the (sym)link to backup ./usr/bin/csplit cannot be created,
permission denied.

The "bug" seems that there is a dot before the /usr, which denotes
"search /usr/bin/csplit from current directory".

A dirty workaround might be to work directly from / (root) directory,
because then even ./usr/bin/csplit will refer to the physical
/usr/bin/csplit directory.
