Description:
/usr/local should not include any subdirectories. The FHS clearly states a package should never change anything inside /usr/local.

For example, I linked /usr/local/sbin to /usr/local/bin and it gets overwritten with every upgrade.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  The FHS clearly states that those subdirectories *must* exist, and since we create them I guess that means we respect the FHS
