They all may be executed by user in the process of analyzing or reporting a problem. > How many of them are launched from init scripts? One: abrt-dump-oops. It also may be used by a user in order to extract oopses from arbitrary files. Imagine a setup where /var/log/messages from a server farm are copied to central server and processed, looking for oopses... > Should some of them be moved to /usr/libexec? I don't think so.
