Again /usr/bin/ subdirectories are not used in Fedora and only appear as
legacy remnants in the FHS (and this part is supposed to be cleaned up for the
next FHS version)
After installing 18000+ packages, the only thing I can see with a
subdirectory in /usr/bin is libgda which seems to create
/usr/bin/gda_trml2html and /usr/bin/gda_trml2pdf . [I have found a lot
of packages which aren't installing because they have file collisions
like /usr/bin/scrub and /usr/bin/validate (and many others I am trying
to get a list of). But this would at least say that putting
sub-directories in /usr/bin is frowned on.
rpmlint is right, please do not reintroduce new filesystem exceptions
now
