Ah, I see. Yes, maybe a directory named based on libpve-notify-perl
would be better or proxmox-notify (but would need to be a bit careful
with co-installed PBS and PVE to not create accidental conflicts).

But there also is a need for versioned breaks, right? Because installing
new libpve-notify-perl (using new proxmox-perl-rs using new
proxmox-notify) without also upgrading pve-manager and pve-ha-manager
will be broken or am I missing something?
