I know, so do I. However I thought it best to place mtr (a traceroute
variant) in the same location as the real traceroute (/usr/sbin), on the
presumption that if you are already using these tools you will likely have
/usr/sbin in your path. Do you think this is something I should raise on
debian-devel/debian-policy? Perhaps /usr/sbin should be in the default
path?
