Did you notice the long threads on fedora-devel about moving utilities between /usr/sbin and /sbin and how many dependent libraries that would pull in? And the thread last month about udev not initializing some devices depending on boot order?

On a running system /usr/bin/sed and /bin/sed are exactly equivalent, but /bin/sed is the classic location, and there is no gain in changing it in metadata. I agree with other posters that this change doesn't seem useful. Zbyszek -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
