Now I solved it doing manually the symbolic link, it could be useful to tell
this in the description of the package in dselect

For the moment I solved it using the clues given in the Ionut Georgescu
message, posted to the mail list. Only the man page after the installation
have a wrong symbolic link that ( ../../lib/compaq/cfal/man instead of
../../../lib/compaq/cfal/man ) I had to modify manually.
Thanks to all
