[Bug 1674465] [NEW] wsgi scripts shouldn't grant on /usr/bin

[Corey Bryant]

Public bug reported:

cdent mentioned this:

<cdent> coreycb: as a somewhat related aside: I think the wsgi script
should not be in /usr/bin and the Directory statement should not grant
on /usr/bin, but whatever the wsgi script dir is. It is pbr that is in
the habit of installing the wsgi script in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin
and that's probably bad.

It does seems sensible to limit the access granted to something more
minimal than /usr/bin.

For reference:

This affects the nova-placement-api.  https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
server-dev/ubuntu/+source/nova/tree/debian/nova-placement-
api.conf?h=stable/ocata

This affects more than just nova.  We should revisit all of our packages
that have wsgi scripts.
