Source: ed
Version: 1.9-1
Severity: grave
Justification: FHS violation and breaks software
tl;dr: FHS says that *if* ed(1) is installed, it MUST
either be installed as /bin/ed or be reachable at that
location as symlink.
https://www.mirbsd.org/mksh_old.htm#editor refers to:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#SPECIFICOPTIONS2
The following programs, or symbolic links to programs, must be in
/bin if the corresponding subsystem is installed:
Command Description
csh The C shell (optional)
ed The `ed' editor (optional)
tar The tar archiving utility (optional)
[…]
While it’s a bit sad that ed(1) is not required, this makes
it clear that programs *can* assume that ed is reachable as
/bin/ed if installed (and a Depends will take care of that)
and so *will* assume that.
Please either, preferably, move ed back to /bin where it
belongs so I can repair /usr-less systems or, at least,
put there a symlink so that FHS compliance is restored.
bye,

PS: offline till Sunday evening, at least; I just happened
to see this in my INBOX before sleep
