I did that, modification:

$ cat debian/logdata-anomaly-miner.links 
/usr/lib/logdata-anomaly-miner/AMiner /usr/bin/AMiner
/usr/lib/logdata-anomaly-miner/AMinerRemoteControl /usr/bin/AMinerRemoteControl

not an option

There are some usecases for users to call them, so let's have them available also.

Still lintian will complain about this file, current header:

#!/usr/bin/python2 -BEsSt

But as patching that to 2.7 will make the warnings go away, from my point of view, that workaround is sufficient for me.

New package is uploaded.

Are there any other open points I shall address?
