Hi, It appears most of the major distros (Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Solaris) have moved to merge the contents of /{bin,sbin,lib}/ into /usr/{bin,sbin,lib}/, with top-level symbolic links added for compatibility.
There is a wiki page on freedesktop.org[1] that goes into the reasoning, and LWN[2][3] has also written about it. Is this something we would like to consider as well? It may be too late for 20.x but this change does appear to simplify things (at least for package maintainers).
