Possibly not for the users, but it _certainly_ improves the environment for system and application administrators. Some applications (for instance: inn and mailman) have a lot of executables which only makes sense when you're in the context of that application user, so having a /usr/libexec/<package> in the path for that user makes life as an application administrator easier. -- Stig Sandbeck Mathisen <s...@debian.org>
