There's something strange going on.
There are a couple of "dist: all" packages missing from the alpha slink
tree. According to my research these are the missing entries:
devel/cweb-latex_1.1.1-8.deb
devel/libpwdb-doc_0.54preD-3.deb
doc/asr-manpages_1.2-1.deb
doc/doc-linux-pl-html_1998.03.29-1.deb
doc/doc-linux-pl_1998.03.29-1.deb
text/miscfiles_1.1-5.deb
The problem seems to be that e.g. doc/asr-manpages is NOT in
slink/binary-all. The result is that
slink/main/binary-i386/doc/asr-manpages is a symlink to
../../../../hamm/main/binary-i386/doc/asr-manpages, which in its turn is
a symlink to ../../binary-all/doc/asr-manpages_1.2-1.deb (i.e. to
hamm/binary-all).
Please look into this problem ASAP.
