Bug#314565: xutils: mkdirhier is redundant to `mkdir -p`



Package: xutils
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14
Severity: minor

Since 2002-09-28 (/usr/share/doc/coreutils/changelog.gz) mkdir from
coreutils supports the creation of directory hierarchies with a switch.

Therefore there is no need for mkdirhier, except to confuse people into
using it and depending on xutils.
