Would it make sense to add the debugedit.spec to the debugedit sources themselves so people can easily create an rpm? Does it actually make sense to install everything under bindir? Originally in rpm the tools were installed under /usr/lib/rpm/ because they were only invoked indirectly through rpm. If we see them as tools that no user/admin/developer will ever invoke directly maybe they should be installed under /usr/libexec/ instead? Cheers, Mark
