I'm not sure what to do abou this one.

The upstream maintainer (Ulrich D.) insists that the relative links are
correct and that making /usr a symlink to something else is "evil".

Rebuilding the links is at the edge of my shell script skills, and
certainly outside any time frame I have available at the moment.

I feel the need for some discussion on the technical consequences of
changing these links, as well as the consequences of not changing them.

Waiting is,
