I attempted a quick check:
$ repoquery -q --repo=rawhide -l -a | tee >(
grep -E '^/usr/bin/[^/]+$' | sort -u | xargs -n 1 basename >
bin.txt
) | grep -E '^/usr/sbin/[^/]+$' | sort -u | xargs -n 1 basename
sbin.txt
$ wc -l bin.txt sbin.txt
31229 bin.txt
2998 sbin.txt
34227 total
$ comm -1 -2 bin.txt sbin.txt

That should be a reasonably accurate list of the executables that need
investigation, and for which the packages that provide them probably
need some kind of modification.
