Package: network-manager Version: 1.40.6-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
With the upcoming freeze of Debian Bookworm, I would like to request that Debian's NetworkManager builds install their libexec binaries in the upstream preferred location in /usr/libexec. This aligns with what other distributions do today (notably Fedora and openSUSE) and is permitted in Debian since policy standard 4.1.5.0 (released in 2018) because that is when FHS 3.0 (released in 2015) was adopted by Debian. I would prefer to see this fixed with Debian Bookworm to minimize the continuing pain this deviation causes, especially for upstream projects that rely on these binaries to activate parts of NetworkManager functionality. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.0.11-300.fc37.x86_64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: unable to detect Versions of packages network-manager depends on: ii adduser 3.129 ii dbus [default-dbus-system-bus] 1.14.4-1 ii libaudit1 1:3.0.7-1.1+b2 ii libbluetooth3 5.66-1 ii libc6 2.36-6 ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.86.0-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.74.2-1 ii libgnutls30 3.7.8-4 ii libjansson4 2.14-2 ii libmm-glib0 1.20.0-1 ii libndp0 1.8-1 ii libnewt0.52 0.52.23-1 ii libnm0 1.40.6-1 ii libpsl5 0.21.0-1.2 ii libreadline8 8.2-1.2 ii libselinux1 3.4-1+b3 ii libsystemd0 252.2-2 ii libteamdctl0 1.31-1 ii libudev1 252.2-2 ii polkitd 122-1 ii udev 252.2-2 Versions of packages network-manager recommends: ii dnsmasq-base [dnsmasq-base] 2.88-1 ii libpam-systemd 252.2-2 ii modemmanager 1.20.0-1 ii ppp 2.4.9-1+1.1+b1 ii wireless-regdb 2022.06.06-1 ii wpasupplicant 2:2.10-9+b2 Versions of packages network-manager suggests: pn iptables <none> pn libteam-utils <none> Versions of packages network-manager is related to: pn isc-dhcp-client <none> -- no debconf information
