Hello intrigeri,

Nicely spotted!

We don't support remote /usr in Ubuntu, so I didn't test that,
sorry. (I. e. it might work in some circumstances, but it's so exotic
and brittle that Ubuntu just never bothered).

Could we change the scripts to drop xargs? I. e replace constructions
like "cmd1 | xargs -n1 cmd2" with "for i in `cmd1`; do cmd2 $i; done",
or "cmd1 | xargs cmd2" with "cmd2 `cmd1`"?

Thanks,

Martin
