** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ apt-btrfs-snapshot is unable to detect the btrfs binary, rendering the 
package completely useless. The symptom is that the package claims the system 
was not supported despite having root on btrfs
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ root@halde:~# apt-btrfs-snapshot supported
+ Supported
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Unclear
+ 
+ 
+ Original Report follows:
  I' using apt-btrfs-snapshot in debian testing and wit worked fine since now.
  (Yes, that's debian, but I think it's likely that this change will come to 
ubuntu sooner or later, please read on.)
  
  In version 4.0-2, the debian package of apt-btrfs-snapshot, moved the
  btrfs binary from /sbin to /bin, see
  
  http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/b/btrfs-tools
  /btrfs-tools_4.0-2_changelog
  
  This lets the check of apt-btrfs-snapshot fail.
  
  I suggest enhancing the check in  snapshots_supported() at line 122 to
  check both paths /sbin/btrfs and /bin/btrfs to make it work again.
