Not everyone agrees, as my last mail shows. I would argue that it's
worth the trouble to do the right thing or at *least* to kill off this
thread!

Yes, but let's not place too much faith on a future change that will
make what we are doing compliant again. I don't see much disadvantage to
making symlinks, but I do see a big advantage to obeying Debian Policy.
(The "correct" thing to do there is to make the symlinks in the packages in
question, but that means coordinating with all the maintainers [who may be
resistant], and is more difficult to back out of, so perhaps a separate
package to do this is reasonable.)
