Hi,

Please help me educated for recent FEDORA changes.  I only know RH4 and
RH5 days.

I am OK to keep applying such patches for the moment for pgklibexec on
Debian.

So you mean to install these programs as:
  /usr/libexec/ibus-gconf
  /usr/libexec/ibus-ui-gtk
  /usr/libexec/ibus-x11
but not as
  /usr/libexec/ibus/ibus-gconf
  /usr/libexec/ibus/ibus-ui-gtk
  /usr/libexec/ibus/ibus-x11
for FEDORA.

Does FEDORA keeps all such package internal executables directly under
/usr/libexec/ ?  Just curious.

Regards,

Osamu

PS: FYI:  For now, Debian is not using /usr/libexec but it is using
/usr/lib for both package internal executables and shared libraries.  My
impression is Debian wishes to avoid overloading its classic /usr/lib
(now it is actually /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu under the multiarch) too
clowded to slow the system.  It uses /usr/lib/@@packagename@@/ (now it
is really /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/@@packagename@@/ under multiarch)
for such programs in general as I observe.  For me, tracking RH is good
idea on merging /bin and /usr/bin and using /usr/libexec.  Although this
is not what is happening on Debian.  Debian tends to put heavy weight
value to the smooth upgrade and to the admin local configuration than
other distributions.  This sometimes becomes really havy burden and
slows adoption of new style and technology.
