Details

The traceroute executable is installed in /usr/sbin in the current 1.4a12-2 package (http://archlinux.org/packages/4259/ - seems to be a bit old too).

I think it would be better for it to sit in /usr/bin ... normal users should be able to have it in the PATH and that's how it is on most distros anyway.

I'm attaching a patch that mimics what Slackware does.
