Is this a bin vs sbin artifact? the nut package includes /usr/sbin/rhino Driver for Brazilian Microsol RHINO UPS equipment the rhino package includes /usr/bin/rhino invokes the JavaScript shell for running scripts in batch mode or interactive I decided to remove the package 'rhino' which did not remove anything else (so nobody needs it?). maybe other programs need /usr/bin/rhino but fail to declare the dependency. I can add rhino later if required. I need 'nut' and do not want to remove it. What is the correct way to resolve this problem? Can I leave rhino installed but exclude it from the upgrade? Tomorrow I will do the upgrade reboot and hope all goes well.Related, see <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Unify_bin_and_sbin>. Unfortunately, the document does not provide troubleshooting or workaround steps.
Yes, I referred to this above as "bin vs sbin artifact". I checked and this is the only file present in both directories where neither is a symlink. I added a comment in the redhat bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2267022#c17
