Proposal to change FHS test (Reference 3.10-5 (A))



The assertion tested is:

        Reference 3.10-5 (A)
        The implementation provides an exec-able version of the update
        utility in the /sbin directory.

This test fails if /sbin/update is only executable for user root.

This is not covered by chapter 3.10 of the FHS 2.1 which only 
_recommends_ to give gloval execute permissions for 
all tools in /sbin. 

I propose to test only on existence and exec permissions for root.
