ossec-hids-agent-2.9.0-49.el7.art is missing ossec-control

The latest agent package is missing /var/ossec/bin/ossec-control, which is referenced in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ossec-hids init script. This is quite literally a non-starter!

This is still an issue in ossec-hids-agent-2.9.1-1764.el7.art. :(

Apologies. On closer inspection, I see that it is created as a symlink. I don't know whether this was only just fixed or whether upgrading from 2.8.3 is broken. I saw this issue in production but it works on a brand new system.

I know its a transition issue from ossec 2.8.3 to 2.9.1 agents, probably because of the renaming (was: client, now: agent). Its on the fix list!
