After installing 18000+ packages, the only thing I can see with a
subdirectory in /usr/bin is libgda which seems to create
/usr/bin/gda_trml2html and /usr/bin/gda_trml2pdf . [I have found a lot
of packages which aren't installing because they have file collisions
like /usr/bin/scrub and /usr/bin/validate (and many others I am trying
to get a list of). But this would at least say that putting
sub-directories in /usr/bin is frowned on.
