I maintain a package which comes with some benchmarking tools. I would like to package these, but they have very generic names like "boot-benchmark", "analysis". Also the tools are very specialized -- you would only want them if you already know you need them.
I wonder if people have opinions on the best way to package these. It seems to me the options are: (1) Put them in %{_bindir} as they are. Likely a bad idea. (2) Put them in some other binary directory. Not sure which though, maybe %{_libdir}/%{name}/ ? (3) Rename them and put them in %{_bindir}. This is technically difficult, because the binaries have manual pages which would all have to be patched to refer to the new names.
