I don't think it should be in sbindir. The FHS says that /usr/sbin is for
"non-essential binaries used exclusively by the system administrator". disktype
doesn't fall into that category. The main reason I use disktype is for examining
ISO images, which I don't think is an administrator-only task. Compare with
commands like isosize or volname; they go into /usr/bin.
