[Pkg-rust-maintainers] Bug#1029504: bat: /usr/bin/bat vs. /usr/sbin/bat in bacula-console-qt

Package: bat
Version: 0.22.1-3
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Undoing the bat/batcat rename was not a good idea: while src:bacula no
longer ships the (transitional) /usr/bin/bat -> /usr/sbin/bat symlink in
bacula-console-qt, it still has the /usr/sbin/bat binary (and its
bat.1.gz manpage which is now causing a file conflict) and thus src:bat
may not use the /usr/bin/bat filename.

(bacula-console-qt should probably better move the manpage to section 8
if the binary resides in sbin, but that is not the point here.)
