well, might be nice, but I'm afraid we need to be more exact.
Could you please find out or estimate, for each of the utils you
mentioned:
Instead of trying to cater each and everybody's demand I'd
simply start
with standards, such as FHS/LSB and POSIX.
If the number of packages affected is small, and if the broken
packages are easy to discover and fix, we can leave util-linux out.
Check POSIX,
you'll find several of the util-linux tools are covered by
it, e.g. kill.
