Any objection to replace "libexec" with "lib"?
According to LSB/FHS, applications are required to use a named
directory in /usr/lib/:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#USRLIBLIBRARIESFORPROGRAMMINGANDPA
Some distros, like e.g. SUSE, don't allow packages to use libexec at all.
Would be nice, if we could do something like:
sed -i 's#/usr/libexec/dracut#/usr/lib/dracut#' Makefile dracut dracut.spec
Thanks,
Kay

I'm not against this change. This a particularly egregious redhat-ism
that is guaranteed to break pretty much everywhere else.
