after pip install dumb-init binary is not in /usr/bin

After I installed dumb-init via pip, i expected the binary in /usr/bin like mentioned in the README but it was in /usr/local/bin

not sure if the README should be fixed, or the pypi package

/usr/local/bin is the correct location if you install via pip. /usr/bin is controlled by package management.

That's exactly how it should be in comliance with FHS.

Hmmm, I'm not seeing where in the README it says that pip will install it into /usr/bin. Unless you're using your system package manager to install dumb-init (such as apt-get) it should end up in /usr/local/bin
