Bug#1027099: gccrs-13: Broken symlink /usr/bin/gccrs-13

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz <glaubitz@physik.fu-berlin.de>]

Source: gcc-13
Version: 13-20221226-1
Severity: normal

Hello!

I just gave it a first try with the gccrs package on ia64 and it turns
out the gccrs-13 symlink in /usr/bin is broken as shown below. Manually
invoking ia64-linux-gnu-gccrs-13 works without any problems and I can
actually compile a working program.

glaubitz@electron:~$ dpkg -l gccrs-13
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)

ii  gccrs-13       13-20221226-1 ia64         GNU Rust compiler
glaubitz@electron:~$ gccrs-13
-bash: gccrs-13: command not found
glaubitz@electron:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/gccrs-13
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Dec 26 16:33 /usr/bin/gccrs-13 -> ia64-linux-gnu-grs-13
glaubitz@electron:~$ /usr/bin/ia64-linux-gnu-gccrs-13
ia64-linux-gnu-gccrs-13: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
glaubitz@electron:~$

Proof that gccrs works on ia64:

glaubitz@electron:~$ cat rust42.rs
fn main() -> i32 {
    return 42;
}
glaubitz@electron:~$ ia64-linux-gnu-gccrs-13 -frust-incomplete-and-experimental-compiler-do-not-use rust42.rs -o rust42
glaubitz@electron:~$ ./rust42 
glaubitz@electron:~$ echo $?
42
glaubitz@electron:~$

Thanks,
Adrian
