Thanks, I've applied to next. See two comments below.

I've simplified a bit the sed expression by using a comma as a separator
instead of slash. This allows to avoid having to escape the slashes
in /usr/bin.

Also, I see that in the setup.py of fail2ban, there is some logic to
actually generate the fail2ban.service, doing the replacement of
@BINDIR at . However, it requires calling the install_scripts target,
which our Python infrastructure doesn't do, and doesn't easily allow to
override today. So I've applied as-is, but if we have more package that
have custom targets like this, we may want to extend a bit the
python-package infrastructure.

Thanks!

Thomas
