Indeed `dpkg -c ../nsscache_0.49-3_all.deb | grep bin` shows there's a
symlink being installed from `/usr/sbin/nsscache` to `/usr/bin/nscache`.
There's no special logic in the upstream to do this.
Ah, this comes from the debhelper `dh_link`:
```
dh_link -O--buildsystem=pybuild
install -m0755

to just one of those locations.
This causes a problem on a filesystem layout where bin and sbin are merged into
a single real directory, typically by
