Bug#1087730: sysconfig-hardware: move aliased files from / to /usr (DEP17)
Source: sysconfig
Version: 0.0.14+nmu1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid trixie
User: helmutg@debian.org

Hi,
your package installs files in /lib and /sbin:
lib/udev/rules.d/65-sysconfig-hardware-net.rules
lib/udev/rules.d/85-sysconfig-hardware.rules
sbin/hwdown
sbin/hwup
Starting with trixie, installing files in those aliased locations is no
longer allowed and considered an RC bug. The goal of this move is
eliminating bugs arising from aliasing, such as file loss during package
upgrades. Those files should be moved to their corresponding location
under /usr.
