aliased-location

This package installs files into an aliased location and should not be doing so.

Since Debian Trixie, the base-files package sets up symbolic links such as /bin pointing to usr/bin. Installing files in /bin directly thus triggers undefined behaviour in dpkg.

Packages must no longer install files into such locations and must install them to the corresponding location under usr/ instead.
