   Better to put your symlink in /usr/local/bin. Leave /usr/bin for your   
   standard distro packages. This will have two effects:   
      
   * Your symlink will not be overwritten by any standard distro package   
   * In fact, your /usr/local/bin entry will typically be given higher   
     priority than any /usr/bin entry with the same name.
