Description:

Currently cifs-utils 5.2-1 builds "getcifsacl" and "setcifsacl" tools, but does not package them because of the following in PKGBUILD:

package() {
...
rm -r $pkgdir/usr/bin
}

Is there any reason for removing the entire /usr/bin? If no, I'd like it to be re-added to the package.

(Related note: The next cifs-utils release will also build /usr/bin/cifscreds by default. Although "cifscreds" is useless right now, it will be used by linux 3.3 cifs module, so that's one more argument against the "rm -rf" here.)
This task depends upon
