Bug#1064795: iproute2: installs same filename to both bin and sbin



Package: iproute2
Version: 6.7.0-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

your package installs the filename `ip` to both bin and sbin as opposed to just one of those locations.

This causes a problem on a filesystem layout where bin and sbin are merged into a single real directory, typically by sbin being a symlink to bin. Such a filesystem layout has become standard on some distributions now, and others are moving onto in their next releases.

Please pick one location and install it only there. /usr/bin is preferred over any other location.

Thank you for maintaining software in debian.
