We can do this in stages, first by shipping a compatibility layer telling people that they're wrong. Discussion related to #1261 suggests that we will never ever be able to change or repoint the /usr/athena symlink, but experimentation suggests that it has no effect on running programs. People should post actual evidence for when it will break, if there are any screw cases. If there aren't, I would love to, for example ship /usr/lib/athena-compat/{bin,lib,include,sbin,share}, and repoint /usr/athena to /usr/lib/athena-compat. /usr/lib/athena-compat/{bin,sbin} can then be filled with symlink targets for things like Perl, Python, etc, which print a message to stderr, and either do the right thing anyway, or error out. Then we can eventually pull the symlink. We can populate include/lib/share/whatever with README files saying ""Go away.""",defect,new,normal,Current Semester,--,,,,,
