Hold on to that point for a few... I think Ed Hill and Ralf Corsepius
have a valid point about %{_libexecdir}/%{name}-%{version}/bin being the

If you use %{_libdir} then you will have to deal with multi-lib

What makes you say that?


As Ralf said, when you place binaries into %{_libdir} you have to deal
with different paths on different systems.


OK, my confusion was based on a different meaning of "multi-lib" in this
context.
