They still have /usr/bin/{cd, umask, wait}, which are just
#!/bin/sh
builtin cd/umask/wait "$@"

That's an incredibly disingenuous argument. Debian isn't POSIX-
compliant by any stretch of the imagination, and they currently
don't provide POSIX-compliant cd/umask/wait binaries because they
have correctly identified that
However the binaries(cd, umask, wait) that cause problem are not
dependency of s6.
Those binaries are not causing problems.
What *is* causing problems is fellow developers who *think* those
binaries are problematic, for reasons that all come from ignorance
of how Unix (and the shell) works.

You don't need to do that. You *can* install the full set of
But I probably will not install binaries like `if, exec, wait` to
default PATH(like /usr/bin). Although I understand this is possible
technically(and currently no other programs claim these names).
The actual reason is that I can't afford time to argue with other

Thanks for this note, I haven't looked at these packages. At first I
thought execline binaries will only be called inside execlinep
scripts. Could you give some examples that s6 calls these binaries
directly except exelinep?
In addition to what Casper said: for instance, some of the

I intend to package skarnet softwares in Debian. When packaging
execline, I find it produces a lot of binaries with common names. Thus
I want to put them in path like /usr/lib/execline/.
Do not do this.
Several programs, including s6 and s6-rc, rely on execline binaries
to be in their PATH.
