In fact, that's demonstrably not so: on my RHEL6 and Fedora boxes,
/usr/bin/etags isn't owned by any package, because it's a symlink
managed by the "alternatives" system. It points to /usr/bin/etags.emacs
which is owned by the emacs-common package. So dropping the advice
about how to fix the problem seems like a good plan.
