And if /usr/libexec is used\nsomewhere\nhard wired it won't show up that the value %{_libexecdir} is ignored.\n\nStill I think this is potentially a general problem not only related to\nSuSE.\n\nI may take care of this problem at some later point when I have some\nmore time\nto learn about the git's building and packaging internals. Maybe\nsomebody else\ncan do it quicker.\n\nCheers,\nMichael\n"}]}
