Bug#5357: Deadlink /usr/lib/terminfo/terminfo
Package: ncurses-base
Version: 1.9.9e-1
Somewhen in the upgrade progress ncurses-base left a dead symlink,
probably at the moment when /etc/terminfo became a directory:
ion:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/terminfo/terminfo
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Apr 27 1996 /usr/lib/terminfo/terminfo -> ../usr/lib/terminfo
ion:~$ ls -lL /usr/lib/terminfo/terminfo
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Apr 27 1996 /usr/lib/terminfo/terminfo -> ../usr/lib/terminfo
The postinst of newer versions should check for this link and remove it.
The link was created on several (upgraded) machines here; it's not
existant on a newly installed system.
Regards
Herbert.
