I was aware that biber installed a program in /usr/bin, but it has
its own page which allows that to be documented.

Today, while I was looking at the new version of Text-BibTeX I
realised that it too puts programs in /usr/bin : biblex, bibparse,
dumpnames (all compiled progs) : and it also installs
libbtparse.so into /usr/lib.

Checking from what I have installed, putting a program into /usr/bin
is not totally weird, although all the others are actually perl
scripts.  From Archive-Zip there is crc32, from libwww-perl there
are four lwp- programs, Log-Log4perl installs l4p-tmpl,

 From the module dependencies, File-Find-Rule installs findrule and
Pod-Coverage installs pod_cover.

Arguably, the dependencies are not fully in the book, so they can be
ignored.  But for the remainder we do not appear to have any way of
documenting these progs and that lib.  Does that matter ?

IMO, A note is the preferred way to explain oddball issues like this. Whether to explain it or not is a judgement call and on this issue, I certainly defer to your experience.
