[debian-knoppix] symlinks destroyed in V3.2-2003-07-26

[Baeckeroot alain <al2.baeckeroot@laposte.net>]

Hello Knoppix world

First I want to thanks KK for the really nice job of knoppix3.2

I have installed the latest knoppix-v3.2-2003-07-26 (whith kernel 2.4.21-xfs)
and I thinks i have a huge bug or misconfiguration:

my symlinks are replaced by the file when I use "vi" (or gvim):

$ touch toto
$ ln -s toto titi
$ ll
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 al2      al2             4 2003-08-22 22:29 titi -> toto
-rw-r--r--    1 al2      al2             0 2003-08-22 22:29 toto
$ vi titi		(I only do :wq  == write + quit)
$ ll
total 0
-rw-r--r--    1 al2      al2             0 2003-08-22 22:29 titi
-rw-r--r--    1 al2      al2             0 2003-08-22 22:29 toto

$vi --version

This awful thing does'nt happen when I use kwrite (for example),
so it is a bug or a misconfiguration in vi ???

Does it happens also for other people ? or is just my machine ?

Sincerely
Alain Baeckeroot
