Please install gpartedbin under /usr/libexec instead of /usr/sbin
Dear maintainers,
Currently, 2 executables are installed by gparted:
-
/usr/sbin/gpartedbin
, the actual application; -
/usr/sbin/gparted
, a wrapper script that tries to ensure only one gparted instance can run at once, and also performs various X-related workarounds.
gpartedbin
is not an executable which is meant to be invoked by the end-user,
and as such should not be placed in the PATH.
Most Linux distributions follow FHS v3, the latest version of the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, which itself suggests using /usr/libexec
for internal executables not meant to be called by users.
Please move gpartedbin
to that location and update gparted.in
accordingly.
