I think my personal preference would be to install as many procps-ng tools as possible in the "right" place, and then only move the few ones for which you can't configure the installation location. On a side note, it would be interesting to write a tool that looks if there are two binaries in bin/, sbin/, usr/bin/ and usr/sbin/ with the same name, in order to automatically detect at the end of the build if we have two commands (one full implementation and one from Busybox) that are installed in different locations.
