Setting up xlibs (4.2.1-6) ...
ERROR: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults symbolic link does not exist.
Either
the package didn't ship the symbolic link (a bug in the package), or dpkg
failed to unpack it to the filesystem (a bug in dpkg).
Please report the package name, version, and the text of the above error
message(s) to <debian-x@lists.debian.org>.
