Hmm, is this behaviour documented somewhere, because i searched it, and i havent found it yet? The problem is, that if a developer does such a change in his package, it might cause serious breakage. Also, i understand that dpkg should not change a symlink back to a directory, but here it is the opposite case. Regards, Thomas -- Thomas Schmidt thomas.schmidt@in.stud.tu-ilmenau.de
