> Why should it be a blocker now that we are asking for ibmpmlinux to be
installed to /opt instead?

PMLinux has only one menu command for all of the user interfaces,
"/var/perf/pm/config.PMLnx", which has a symbol link at
/usr/sbin/config.PMLnx for root working well without $PATH setting.

Now, as per Mathieu's request "putting *everything* under /opt" " to
fulfill FHS standard, we have to move that public link into /opt/sbin,
which will ruin the interface access, so does PMLinux man help if we
also relocate PMLinux.8.gz from /usr/share/man to /opt/man.

Because Ubuntu is not ready for basic /opt support, what I hope is Ubuntu team 
still allows PMLinux continue to use /usr/sbin and /usr/share/man.
