Hi,
I am observing packages in FE installing examples/demos to /usr/bin.
Do people agree upon this to be good packaging practice or not?
IMO, it is not, because
* This gradually fills up /usr/bin.
* Many such examples/demos are semi-functional or less and have never
been designed to be used by the public.
I'd recommend to install examples/demos to either
/usr/lib/<package>/
or even to
/usr/share/doc/<package>
Opinions, comments?
Ralf
