The zfs utilities scripts shipped with debian and ubuntu such as :

    * arc_summary.py : Provides a summary of the statistics
https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/blob/master/cmd/arc_summary

    * arcstat.py : Print out ZFS ARC Statistics exported via kstat(1)
https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/tree/master/cmd/arcstat

    * dbufstat.py : Print out statistics for all cached dmu buffers
https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/blob/master/cmd/dbufstat

should be renamed according to Policy 10.4 :

[https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-scripts]

"When scripts are installed into a directory in the system PATH, the
script name should not include an extension such as .sh or .pl that
denotes the scripting language currently used to implement it."

Ideally, this should be fixed and upstreamed to Debian (or to zfslinux
upstream) as well.

** Affects: zfs-linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Low
     Assignee: Eric Desrochers (slashd)
         Status: In Progress
