Hi!

Lintian show this tag on the pedantic setting:

P: bacula-common: executable-in-usr-lib usr/lib/bacula/bdirjson
P: bacula-common: executable-in-usr-lib usr/lib/bacula/bfdjson
P: bacula-common: executable-in-usr-lib usr/lib/bacula/bsdjson
P: bacula-common: executable-in-usr-lib usr/lib/bacula/btraceback
P: bacula-common: executable-in-usr-lib usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_bacula

Should we fix this?

The path /usr/lib/nagios/plugins has the be that way, because this is kind 
of defined in the Nagios Plugin-API, so a lintian-override is in order 
here.

But the other binaries should be moved to /usr/libexec/bacula as per 
§9.1.1 and https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch04s07.html

Thoughts?

Grüße,
Sven.
