1913	coreutils: readlink should probably be in /bin	bryan@linuxfromscratch.org	Matthew Burgess	"The Udev rule_generator.functions file has a ""sysreadlink"" function that uses the readlink binary.  That functions file also sets PATH to /sbin:/bin (it was designed to be used before /usr is mounted), which means readlink needs to be in either /sbin or /bin.

Chapter 6 coreutils leaves it in /usr/bin (while moving many other programs).  I think we should add readlink to the list of programs being moved to /bin.

As for other distros, at least Debian has it in /bin (I don't know about any others).  See:
