Well, bins are installed in /usr/sbin

As %{_sbin}/%{name}-qui ?

Why? I want to launch /usr/bin/lshw-gui, not anything else.


>I notice the the installed location is now /sbin. 

Yes, Lyonel  said lshw* had to run as root, then they belong in /usr/sbin,
the consolehelper is of course in /usr/bin, see consolehelper(8) .

A choice I made, the result is that normal users will not see the
gtk-lshw command, only lshw-gui. Don't a big problem?
