We are aware of this. arcstat is NOT a new binary added in recent versions, but is installed into /usr/sbin for several years and versions. I moved it to /usr/bin because it does not actually require specific permission to use. Is there any suggestion on such situation? Keeping ours in sbin would cause (the long-existing) confusion to user if they install both packages and find that two different arcstat exist in bin and sbin. Renaming either one would also make trouble. Thanks, Shengqi Chen
