sys-apps/irqbalance-1.9.4

while the binary is installed to /usr/bin (not sure since when)
the init script tries to invoke it from /usr/sbin where it is not nor a symlink therefore invocation fails.

which irqbalance
/usr/bin/irqbalance


cat files/irqbalance.init.4 | grep -v ^# | grep bin
command="/usr/sbin/irqbalance"

 service irqbalance start
 * Starting irqbalance ...
 * start-stop-daemon: /usr/sbin/irqbalance does not exist
 * Failed to start irqbalance                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             [ !! ]

It happened when we switched to meson recently.
