[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#796008: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/virt-p2v: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/virt-p2v installed in incorrect path

Just a note that the upstream p2v/Makefile.am uses:

libexec_PROGRAMS = virt-p2v

In Fedora, the binary is placed in /usr/libexec (which doesn't
exist on Debian of course).

Wherever you put it, the command is not intended to be run by
any user (neither non-root, nor root).  The command should only
be used when packaged into a bootable ISO, and in that case it
runs from a wrapper script at boot time.

Rich.
