FWIW, we are discussing all this because you did not reply to the
original bug report (which is 3 week old) until I got interested in the
proposed patch. This is no accusation of course, every one of us get
busy, but please don't get surprised by that comment, especially
considering that Martin replied to me only :-)

OK, cool.

As far as *I* can tell from this discussion, you should:
- move the pg_prove binary to /usr/bin/
- do not ship pg_tagpen at all (at least that's what David E. Wheeler
told in this thread)

These are less of a problem, given that policy (actually FHS) mandates
that executables meant for final user usage must be in /usr/bin/,
whereas for arch-independent files it just mandates they must be under
/usr/share/. So, IMHO, you can leave them where they are.
Thanks for your maintenance of this package!
Cheers.
