  I packaged and maintained it packaged in Mandriva for a few years.
If I recall correctly, it is (kind of) salome "solution" to avoid name clashes.

  I believe a symbolic link should be acceptable. Actually creating a subdir
would probably have a lot of opposition, but it should be possible to
reconfigure salome to use %_libexecdir/salome or %_libdir/salome
