I think my personal preference would be to install as many procps-ng
tools as possible in the "right" place, and then only move the few ones
for which you can't configure the installation location.

On a side note, it would be interesting to write a tool that looks if
there are two binaries in bin/, sbin/, usr/bin/ and usr/sbin/ with the
same name, in order to automatically detect at the end of the build if
we have two commands (one full implementation and one from Busybox)
that are installed in different locations.

Best regards,

Thomas
