installing shared libs in /sbin ...

[Timshel Knoll]

Hi,

Just a small 'suggestion':

When I build parted, I install the executable in /sbin so that it is
available before other file systems are mounted. However, this means
that I also need libparted.so.x.x.x on the / filesystem, so I manually
move that from /usr/lib to /lib before building the package.

Is it possible to specify different install paths for shared libs than
static libs? libparted.a (and the libparted.so symlink) still need to be
in /usr/lib ... It might be overly complex to try to implement this, but
hey .... I thought I'd bring it up anyway...
