Well. Either way it is the wrong place and too late to have this discussion. My personal preference is to find robust solutions and spaces in shell scripts is a bug class that keeps on giving. I think it is better to not have to worry about a class of problems than excluding them it by decree.

In a parallel universe where time is a less scarce resource... I would make these bash scripts, use arrays and have a way to disambiguate bin/foo and sbin/foo..


Other sbin binaries: I think we won't find many.

 wget --no-parent -r http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/latest/Debian_9.0/amd64/
for i in `ls download.opensuse.org/repositories/network\:/osmocom\:/latest/Debian_9.0/amd64/*.deb`; do dpkg -c $i | grep sbin; done

returns no hit.
