Bug#961096: texlive-binaries: Spurious /bin/ctangle is created

[Igor Liferenko <igor.liferenko@gmail.com>]

Package: texlive-binaries
Version: 2020.20200327.54578-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

/bin/ctangle is hard link to /usr/bin/ctangle:

    $ ls -i /bin/ctangle /usr/bin/ctangle
    2111286 /bin/ctangle  2111286 /usr/bin/ctangle

However, /bin/ctangle is not part of the texlive-binaries package:

    $ dpkg -L texlive-binaries|grep /bin/ctangle
    /usr/bin/ctangle

The worst thing about this is that when I copy DEK's unchanged "ctangle" to /bin/,
/usr/bin/ctangle gets clobbered.
Evin if I remove /bin/ctangle prior to creating new /bin/ctangle, /usr/bin/ctangle
somehow gets clobbered too.
And after an upgrade /bin/ctangle is also overwritten to be equal to /usr/bin/ctangle

The same concerns tex, cweave, etc. 

I would expect that /bin/ctangle, which does not belong to texlive-binaries
package, will not be touched by texlive-binaries package.

Best,
Igor
