Comment 102 for bug 25966

I meant if you could ask Brother if they could recompile the binary files using /usr as prefix (using whatever they use to create those binaries) and then provide the resulting binaries to ubuntu (and maybe even use these for their own debian packages, since it makes sense there, too).
But if the sed-command on the binaries actually works, and there are no legal problems with this, there won't be the need to ask Brother to recompile.
