Source: developers-reference
Severity: normal

Section 6.4 "Nest practices for maintainer script" has a pathfind()
function which it suggests copy & pasting into maintainer scripts.  It
suggests "which" as an alternative that requires /usr.

I think "best practices" and "copy and paste this function" are
contradictionary.  Given that /usr is *always* available when
maintainer scripts are run, using `which` should be just fine.
