If we believed that we wouldn't have the perf wrapper script at all. That script is really all the perf package (not kernel-perf) exists for. My patch is not about changing that picture at all. If Kyle believes you that we can rely on that, we can punt the wrapper script and kernel-perf and just install the real binary directly in the perf package. The requirement I added is really just for the thinking that the perf wrapper script has to match up with the packaging convention of the kernel-perf. So if we change where the wrapper script looks then we'd want a compatible kernel-perf subpackage. It doesn't prevent you from having other kernel-perf's installed too.
