These are not comparable to the "lid" situation. They are either: - programs using consolehelper, the legacy privilege escalation mechanism, which depends on one of the names being a symlink to consolehelper and the other name being the program itself, or - cases where the program historically lived in one directory, then was moved to the other and a symlink in the old directory was added for backwards compat. But it is the same program.They're not comparable to the "lid" name conflict between two different programs.
