[Pkg-iscsi-maintainers] Bug#810276: files with the same name installed in / and /usr

Package: open-iscsi
Version: 2.0.873+git0.3b4b4500-12
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Usertags: usrmerge
Tags: patch

The package installs a symbolic link to a file with the same name in
both /sbin/ and /usr/sbin/, so it makes impossible to convert a system
to the everything-in-usr directories scheme.

The attached patch solves this problem by creating the link in postinst
and only if it is needed.

If you do not believe that these symlinks are actually in use by modern
software then please consider just removing them.

For more information about merged /usr please read
