2.23.2 I guess?

We don't really have a choice here (:

The current package has the same rpmlint warnings so you don't need to fix 
this right now INHO. The hardlinks are only a problem when /usr/bin is on 
a different filesystem than /usr. I don't actually maintain these 
packages so you will likely end up being the maintainer.
