Actually it is in both, since /usr/sbin/update-alternatives is a symlink to ../bin/update-alternatives. It's been this way for a long time. But at any rate, this check is wrong, because update-alternatives, unlike, say, ucf or binfmt, isn't optional, it is part of dpkg and is always present on a debian (-derived) system. So there's just no point in checking for its presence. I removed it now.
