Attached patch reverts the bindir = /usr/sbin change in favour of moving
the scripts in debian/rules (reusing the 'mv' that already happens in
master because of the dropped '.py' suffix).

I checked and none of the file paths in the built binary packages
changes, so this only reverts to the default bindir for future binaries
introduced in newer upstream versions.

Ubuntu seems to have opted for symlinking the non-'.py' paths instead of
moving the scripts (I assume for compatibility with existing scripts /
callers), if that is planned for the Debian packages as well the "mv to
rename" and "mv to move" calls need to be split of course.
