Ultimately it depends on how those files have ended up there. If files have been
installed in in /usr/lib because they've been installed in ${libdir} (this is
the default for all autotooled recipes), then you should also use ${libdir} to
match in FILES in case that value changes - some distros do this to flatten out
/usr altogether for example.
Cheers,
Paul
