In upstream e2fsprogs, the default configure options place certain files in /{,s}bin and others in /usr/{,s}bin. Gentoo currently overrides that using options predating the default placement of those files outside of /usr/local/{,s}bin, by placing them all in /{,s}bin (except mklost+found which is placed in /usr/sbin). The following files are placed in positions outside upstream's defaults, and could probably be moved into /usr/{,s}bin: /bin/chattr /bin/lsattr /bin/uuidgen /sbin/filefrag /sbin/uuidd Note that the simplest way to use upstream's defaults is to remove the "--bindir=/bin --sbindir=/sbin" arguments to econf, and pass "--root-prefix=" to econf. Attached is a patch for the ebuild to do so.
