Bug#688799: grub-common: grub-mknetdir does not need to be run by root -- move out of sbin?

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

Package: grub-common
Version: 2.00-5
Severity: wishlist

I observe that grub-mknetdir works fine as a non-privileged user.
Making it an "administrator-only" tool by placing it in /usr/sbin/
seems like it encourages people to update their tftp server
directories as root, when they don't necessarily need extra privileges
to do that.

Maybe it belongs in /usr/bin instead?

PS Thanks for packaging grub 2.00 in experimental!  It works for me on
this old dell workstation.
