fixed: now uses %{_bindir}

fiexed: locales are no longer supported by upstream - removed

didn't decided what to do with these two yet

fixed: updated

could you please point me to some packaging guidelines or something about why
should I avoid them? ln -sf ../../bin/ksh seems to me pretty ugly to do it
without knowing the reason. thanks
